Transferring in for her final year of eligibility, Green made an immediate impact. She started all 33 games, averaging 31.6 minutes per contest and leading the team in total scoring with 519 points. Her 15.7 points per game was not only consistent but clutch, helping drive the Crimson Tide through a competitive schedule and postseason play.

Green's prowess included 10 games with 20 or more points and a season-high 28-point performance on the road against California (Dec. 5). She was also a model of consistency, hitting double digits in 29 of 33 games.

Her contributions went well beyond scoring. Green led the team in assists, dishing out 4.5 per game including a season-high eight assists in a conference win at Ole Miss (Jan.12). She also showed her rebounding skills, pulling down a season-best of 10 boards against Georgia State (Dec. 2).

On Jan. 2, during the Crimson Tide's first Southeastern Conference win of the season against Florida, Green reached a major career milestone surpassing 1,500 total points, a fitting moment for a player whose veteran leadership and all-around game elevated the Crimson Tide all season long.

One season. One legacy. And now, a step into the process of becoming a pro. On April 4, the standout guard officially declared for the 2025 WNBA Draft capping off a remarkable year in crimson and white that quickly etched her name into Alabama women's basketball history.

As the 2025 WNBA Draft approaches on April 14 - live from The Shed at Hudson Yards in New York City and streaming on ESPN at 7:30 p.m. ET - Green is poised to be one of the women to be selected. As of now she is projected as a third-round pick.
