Green nominated for POW

For the fifth time this season, a Celtic has been nominated for the Eastern Conference Player of the Week. This time, it's Jeff Green.

And for the fifth time this season, a Celtic did not bring home the honor. Miami's LeBron James was once again named the Player of the Week.

But let's give Green his due. In four games last week, he averaged 19.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.0 blocks. He also shot 56% from the floor.

The highlight of Green's week came on Friday night in what was his best performance in a Celtic uniform. Green's career night included 31 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and a career-high 5 blocks in a victory over the Phoenix Suns.

It's safe to say Green has made tremendous strides over the course of this season.
