"The 6-foot-1 point guard from Centerreach, L.I., one of the area’s top freshmen, is just beginning to create his own path. He already has scored over 1,000 points on the high school level, as an eighth grader at North Babylon and this past year for St. Mary’s of Manhasset, and is a key piece for nationally ranked AAU program Team SCAN's 16-and-under team.
His father, Danny Green Sr., said Devonte already has landed scholarship offers from Cincinnati and Florida, while North Carolina (Danny’s alma mater), Georgetown, Syracuse and Connecticut, among others, have expressed interest.
Devonte started playing basketball at the age of 4, inspired by watching his older brother’s games at St. Mary’s. Green Sr. said Devonte isn’t the shooter Danny was at the same age — the older brother, after all, is one of the top 3-point shooters in the NBA — but is a better ball handler and defender.
