Danny Green recalls ‘walking on eggshells,’ nervousness at being a Spur

Posted Dec 6, 2014
“My first couple years (with the Spurs) I was very nervous and it took me a while to get comfortable,” Danny Green told Basketball Insiders. “I remember walking on eggshells, being scared of what to do or where to go. These are guys I watched playing growing up. It’s a culture shock and it’s a celebrity-type shock. Then you become teammates with them, share a locker room and it’s different." (Project Spurs)
