Considered a top official during the bj-league's first four seasons, Tim Greene is now in uncharted territory.

Greene is one of the NBA's replacement referees, No. 140 — for now.

He worked Wednesday's Memphis Grizzlies-Atlanta Hawks game at FedEx Forum along with Lorenzo Bronson and Byron Jarrett. On Oct. 7, Greene worked his first preseason game — Detroit Pistons vs. Milwaukee Bucks — at the Palace of Auburn Hills.
