Black Friday came a week early this year.

It seemed like any given night in the NBA this past Friday. Unfortunately for hoops fans, it was a night that saw not one, not two, but three all-star caliber players go down with an injury.

basketballmonster.com’s player rankings for that period.

With the return of basketballmonster.com’s player ranking system, and he’s up to his old tricks again this year, ranking at 47.

At age 35, he’s still a defensive specialist on the wing and plays a solid 32.2 minutes per game for the Mavs. He’s productive during that time with averages of 12.0 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.4 steals, 1.0 blocks, and 0.9 threes.

The points and rebounds are valuable enough, but players that can give you at least one steal, one block, and one three per game are rare and underrated. In fact, dunking and cupcakes than playing ability, has gotten two such opportunities this year. First when Goran Dragic missed a few games with various cuts and bruises and now with Bledsoe on the shelf with a shin injury. In the eight games that Green has started, he’s gone off for 17.5 points, 0.9 steals, 0.9 blocks, and a remarkable 3.1 threes.

His rebounding (3.4) and assist (1.9) numbers leave a little to be desired, but any owner in need of scoring or threes should add Green while he’s starting. Bledsoe has claimed to be in quite a bit of pain when walking, so it’s hard to imagine that he’ll come back too quickly. Even if he does, Green has been relatively effective in his bench role as well and has the opportunity to sustain value on a Suns team that is relatively low on talent.
