The UNLV men’s basketball program has officially signed guard Al Green, who will join the Runnin’ Rebels for the 2025-26 season, head coach Josh Pastner announced Sunday.
Green, a 6-foot-3, 185-pound junior from Sacramento, California, transfers from Louisiana Tech University. He played in 30 games for the Bulldogs last season, starting in 10, and averaged 10.2 points per game. He reached double figures in 14 games, including three 20-point performances, and led the team in scoring eight times.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Al to the Runnin’ Rebel family,” Pastner said. “He brings a high level of skill, experience, and leadership that fits perfectly with our culture. His ability to score and compete will make a big impact.”
Green was one of the top 3-point shooters in Conference USA last season. He led the league in 3-point shooting in conference-only games, hitting 48% (36 of 75), and was seventh overall at 41.2%. In Louisiana Tech’s five toughest matchups, he shot 59% from deep, connecting on 13 of 22 attempts. He also set a program record by scoring 28 points in a Conference USA Tournament game against Middle Tennessee.
Before his time at Louisiana Tech, Green played two seasons at San Diego City College (SDCC), where he was ranked No. 25 nationally by JucoRecruiting. As a sophomore, he helped lead SDCC to a 26-5 record and earned First Team All-PCAC honors by averaging 13.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.5 assists. He ranked third in steals and scored a season-high 28 points in the state quarterfinals. As a freshman, he was named First Team All-PCAC and First Team PCAC All-Freshman, averaging 14.4 points per game.
Green played his high school basketball at Franklin High School in Elk Grove, California.
He joins incoming players Mason Abittan, Dravyn Gibbs-Lawhorn, Tyrin Jones, and Emmanuel Stphen as part of the 2025-26 recruiting class. Returning players James Evans Jr. and Jacob Bannarbie have also committed to remain with the team.
