Best NBA players to win NBA Finals with two or more teams: 23. Danny Green

Danny Green is the first player on this list that is still able to add to his resume so he could ultimately shoot up the rankings. For the time being, finding himself here would have been a pipedream when he was cut from the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2010. He was given an opportunity by the San Antonio Spurs and has turned into one of the better postseason shooters in NBA history.

Even his opportunity with the Spurs did not stick at first as Green was waived and spent some time in the D-League and Slovenia before rejoining the Spurs after the 2011 NBA lockout. Green started 38 games in that shortened season and shot a blistering 43.6 percent from long range. Green would rise to be a clutch performer in his two Finals appearances against the Miami Heat.

Green would play eight seasons total for the Spurs and would make an All-Defensive team in 2017. He also shot 39.6 percent on 4.7 3-point attempts per game during his time there. Green was traded along with Kawhi Leonard to the Toronto Raptors. As a key piece on another championship run, Danny Green started to see a decline but was still a clutch shot maker and defender for the Raptors and helped bring home the franchise’s first NBA title.

Then, a year later, he would win another, this time with the Los Angeles Lakers. This would make Green one of four men to win titles with three different teams. Green was traded by the Lakers following the championship run and is currently a starter for the Philadelphia 76ers. As the Sixers roll toward the best record in the Eastern Conference at the All-Star break, Green has a chance to add another title to his already impressive collection.
