So far during his first game as a member of the Grizzlies in the playoffs, he’s been making some plays for his new team as they take on the Portland Trailblazers.
Early on in the first quarter, Green caught a pass from Marc Gasol over the outstretched Blazers defender.
That’s where it got crazy, instead of catching the pass and it putting it on the floor, he made a Harlem Globetrotters like move and whipped it around with a one-handed touch pass to a wide open Courtney Lee, who was standing in the corner for three.
Green’s reflexes were so quick with the ninja-like pass that both he and Nic Batum went crashing to the ground.
Even better for Memphis, Lee drilled the corner three to extend the Grizzlies early advantage.
When it comes to beautiful passes, greats like Magic Johnson, John Stockton, Oscar Robertson and Steve Nash are at the very top of the list.
You can add Jeff Green to the did that just happen highlight reel.
