Green expressed his admiration for Celebrini’s potential, saying, 'When you're being compared to the greats at 18? Man, LeBron James was compared to the greats at 18, and he outlived it. Mack has that thing, and I think to be compared to the greats at 18, whatever people's hopes are or thoughts of what he will become, he'll outdo that.'
Reflecting on Celebrini's journey, Green noted, 'I had a conversation with him and was like, 'Yo, you’re going to be the No. 1 pick ... at 12,' and to see that come to fruition, and to know the work that he's put in, like, what a special talent to be 18 years old, and there’s nights where he’s the best player on the ice.'
