Klay Thompson missed the entire season after suffering a torn ACL in Game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals, while Stephen Curry only suited up for only five games.
Green averaged 2.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and five assists while shooting just 26.6 percent from the field over the first five games.
With increased minutes in February, Green began to resemble the player we have been used to seeing.
According to PBP Stats, Green assisted Curry on 194 baskets, which was the most anyone assisted a teammate on the season.
When rookie James Wiseman suffered a torn meniscus that would keep him out for the remainder of the year, Kerr used Green as a small-ball 5.
And so, when you look at the impact that I have on the defensive side of the ball, it’s not always going to show up in blocked shots.
One area Green will need to focus on this offseason is his scoring.
More than 68 percent of Green’s looks from beyond the arc were considered wide open by NBA.com, meaning there was no defender within six feet when he released the ball.
“I rebounded for Draymond pregame the other day for his shooting routine — first time I’ve ever done it,” Kerr said last week on 95.7 The Game’s Damon Bruce show.
