Watch highlights from Gerald Green’s 41-point outburst in NBA Jam form (Video)
After bouncing around between the Boston Celtics, Minnesota Timberwolves, Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks, New Jersey Nets, and Indiana Pacers, Gerald Green appears to finally have found a home with the Phoenix Suns.

Earlier this month, Green exploded for 41 points during a 128-122 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 28-year-old made 12-of-22 shots and 8-of-13 from behind the three-point line.

No real complaints on the assigned ratings and the 10 for dunking is fully deserved. Here’s some of Green’s recent work above the rim.
