An undrafted kid coached by his dad — who broke Ray Allen's Bucks three-point record and became one of the NBA's best shooters.

A Cedar Falls, Iowa native, Green played for Northern Iowa under his father Kyle, won two MVC Player of the Year awards, and went undrafted in 2022.

LIFE

Roots & the rise

An undrafted marksman who rewrote Milwaukee's three-point record book — one of the league's best shooters.

Austin Jahn 'A.J.' Green was born in Cedar Falls, Iowa and played for Northern Iowa, where his father Kyle was an assistant and then associate head coach — a genuine basketball family, with his mother having played at Hamline and his sister playing at UNI. Twice the Missouri Valley Player of the Year, he went undrafted in 2022 and signed a two-way deal with Milwaukee.

He earned a standard contract, then a four-year, $45 million extension in 2025, and in 2025-26 he made history: a franchise-record 11 threes in a game (April 2026) and a franchise-record 232 three-pointers in a season, passing Ray Allen's mark, while shooting 41.9% from deep.

BEYOND THE GAME

Beyond the game

Green is a basketball-family product through and through: his father Kyle coached him at Northern Iowa, his mother Michele played at Hamline, and his younger sister Emerson plays for the UNI women's team. That gym-rat upbringing shows in a craft built entirely around shooting — footwork, relocation, and a lightning release.

His path is the undrafted specialist's dream: from a mid-major star to a two-way flier to a $45 million extension and the Bucks' three-point record book. In a league that prizes floor-spacing, Green turned one elite skill into a real NBA career, and his 2025-26 record-setting season put his name alongside Ray Allen's in Milwaukee lore.

ANALYSIS

What the numbers say

Spacing that rewrites records

Green's 42% shooting on record-setting volume — a franchise single-season mark of 232 threes, past Ray Allen — is a genuine, defense-warping weapon. He runs off staggered screens, relocates, and fires on a hair-trigger, the exact gravity that opens driving and passing lanes. On a Bucks team reshaping its identity, an elite, cost-controlled shooter is a valuable constant.
