Danny Green on passing Larry Bird in career 3-pointers: 'Mind-boggling'

Posted Dec 17, 2015
Instead of discussing a career milestone after the San Antonio Spurs' 114-95 win over the Washington Wizards on Wednesday, Danny Green talked about the opening of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," and his search for what he called a Jedi Knight hoodie. Then a reporter made Green aware he'd passed Hall of Famer Larry Bird in career 3-pointers, inquiring whether the accomplishment blew the guard's mind. (ESPN.com)
