What a week for Danny Green. Two days after his $1 million contribution to UNC, Green picked up his 2020 NBA championship ring from the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night. He then proceeded to light up his former team. Green collected 28 points and eight 3-pointers, including a game-clinching 3 from the left corner with 30.4 seconds left. (Tar Heel Tribune)
