Free agent forward Javonte Green has agreed to a one-year, $3.95 million deal to return to the Detroit Pistons, according to sources tell ESPN. The veteran forward remains in Detroit after proving to be a durable and efficient piece of the rotation during the previous season.
Green is coming off a productive year where he played in all 82 games for the Pistons. During that span, he averaged 6.9 points and 17.6 minutes per game. His shooting was a highlight of his campaign, as he connected on 38.1% of his attempts from three-point range, providing the team with reliable floor spacing and veteran leadership.
The Detroit Pistons front office prioritized bringing back Green to maintain consistency within the lineup. At $3.95 million, the one-year agreement allows the franchise to retain a proven contributor while maintaining future financial flexibility. Green has become a valued presence on the court for the developing squad, appearing in every contest last season to anchor the secondary unit.
