Excellent deal if true. Other teams should take notes.
A bit pricey if you ask me, but gotta trust the FO's judgment.
Great deal. Relatively short and avoided going over $4 million a season.![]()
Given the re ed amount of money that teams are throwing around, this is a good contract.
this. i am very satisfied with the deal.
Excellent news.
Can't complain about this deal at all. Yea he played like in the WCF but if he left we'd have a big hole at the 2. And $4 million a year ain't breaking the bank. Goos sign. Now we need a another BIG dammit! And a good one, not some scrub. Make it happen R.C!

Aweseom newsGood start to the off season. 3 years is perfect and the amount is definitely fair for what he has already proven, his upside and his risk.
Outstanding deal. Rotation SG at 4 million a year? I'll take it every time.
When looking at comparables, this is more than fair. If someone like Daequan Cook got $3.75M per season from the Thunder, there's really no way to argue Green deserves less than that.
Coming into the summer, $3 million per season was about what I wanted the Spurs to give him. But after doing the research, I really couldn't argue against $4 million.
It's possible that a team would have thrown more money at him as the top shooting guards started going off the board so this was also a well-time offer by the Spurs. $4 million is still a good bargain in this market and three years is just about the perfect length.
I think looking back on it, $12 million for Danny Green age 25 thru 28 will look like good investment. At worst, he's a multipurpose swingman off the bench who can provide defense and help in a number of niche areas. At best, he builds upon what he did last year and becomes a bargain.
good for both sides solid deal.
he got them 3 years to grow and see how good he can get.
Novak got 4 years and $15m. Enough said. This is a great deal. He will continue to improve.
The Spurs FO once more proves that it is still one of the most reasonable in the league.

Billy Duffy, who reps @Dgreen_14, confirms 3-year, $12 mil. fully guaranteed deal; 'There were a couple other suitors and quite frankly we didn’t go very far down the runway. Danny wanted to return.'

People still not over his performance in the WCF? It was the kid's first time playing deep in the playoffs. He can only get better, and in this system I believe he will continue to do so. Glad he's coming back. Spurs youth movement ftw.
Perfect deal...reasonable dollars and years.
$4M/year for 3 prime years from a versatile starter who is a plus player on both ends of the court and a perfect scheme fit on one of the elite teams in the league is NOT "a bit pricey." In fact it's quite a steal.
Is this the Center Lorbek was talking about? #supersmallball
