A knee injury has kept Danny Green from playing with the Grizzlies, but he’s poised to soon help another title contender.MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Danny Green keeps his three NBA championship rings in a safe behind lock and key. They rarely see the light of day.
As a role player and journeyman, Green understands proper championship ring storage to be an NBA first-world problem.Green was the starting shooting guard on the Spurs’ 2014 championship squad. He was traded to Toronto as part of the Kawhi Leonard deal in 2018, and immediately contributed to the first NBA title in Raptors history.
He has already made his presence felt for an up-and-coming Grizzlies team that headed into Wednesday’s game against the Spurs tied with Denver atop the Western Conference. He would become a key contributor during a Spurs era that saw four trips to the conference finals and two to the NBA Finals. Leonard, the disgruntled All-Star forward and MVP of the 2014 Finals, was sent to Toronto in exchange for DeMar DeRozan, Jakob Poeltl and the draft pick that later became Keldon Johnson.Just like that, Green’s time in San Antonio was finished after eight seasons. The move cleared the way for Green to triple his championship ring collection.
