Willie Green’s Mentoring a Positive for Orlando Magic

(Willie) Green was a positive influence in the (Orlando) Magic locker room, especially for Maurice Harkless, Victor Oladipo and Elfrid Payton.

“I talk to Willie every day,” Harkless said in March. “Willie’s definitely somebody that I talk to whenever I get frustrated. He’s the one to talk to. It’s always Willie.”

“It’s no secret that I met with [GM] Rob [Hennigan] and I met with the coaches and stuff here, and I expressed to them that I’m definitely open to being back here in Orlando,” Green said. “I like the foundation that the team has. I like our young fellas, and I think I can help them on and off the floor. So if the possibility is open, then I’m definitely open to exploring it.”
