In terms of what he will bring to the Lakers, Green is both a sniper from beyond the arc and a lockdown defender. He was named to the All-Defensive Second Team in 2017, and while his shooting was somewhat inconsistent during Toronto's playoff run, he was excellent during the regular season.

Green averaged 10.3 points while shooting a career-high 45.5% from three-point range, and his 3-point shooting ability will allow the Lakers to space the floor.
