Cleveland Cavaliers: Jeff Green is proving his worth as a starter

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been dealing with an abundance of injuries as of late. These players include Tristan Thompson, Cedi Osman, Rodney Hood and Larry Nance Jr. Due to the lack of bodies, certain players are having to step their game up a notch in order for the team to succeed. Jeff Green is one of those players.

This season, Jeff Green is averaging 10.7 points and 3.3 rebounds, while shooting 47.6% from the field. While the majority of games he has come off the bench, Green has found himself in the starting lineup lately. Not just at the small forward position, but Green has played both the power forward and the center position in games, and has played them at a very high level.
