Explodes for 34 points in victory Green had 34 points (12-23 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 118-109 victory over Phoenix.
Impact Green is going through the most productive stretch of his career, and while he still needs to do a lot of work in the efficiency department, that won't matter much as long as he can keep putting the ball in the basket the way he's done it over the Rockets' last few games. Green posted back-to-back games with 30 or more points just for the second time this season, and he's averaging a solid 19.8 points per game since the league resumed following the All-Star break. However, he's also making just 38 percent of his shots in that span.

Explodes for 34 points in loss Green supplied 34 points (10-28 FG, 7-17 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, two assists and three steals across 39 minutes during Thursday's 110-105 loss to the Suns.
Impact Green finished just two points shy of tying what would've been his best scoring mark of the campaign, but even if that wasn't the case, the third-year forward continues to make an impact as a scoring threat for Houston. This was one of his best performances of the campaign, but he's still shy of averaging 20.0 points per game, and he's also shooting a career-worst 40.4 percent from the field.

Available versus Suns Green (illness) is available versus the Suns on Thursday, according to Rockets reporter Vanessa Richardson.
Impact Green was a late addition to the injury report and was carrying a probable tag prior to this update, but he'll maintain his track record of zero games missed this season with this news.

Late addition to injury report Green is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Suns due to an illness.
Impact Green is in danger of missing his first game this season Thursday after being a late addition to the injury report with a non-COVID illness. If the 21-year-old guard is ruled out, Amen Thomspon, Aaron Holiday, and Cam Whitmore are candidates to receive increased playing time.

Poor shooting display Thursday Green recorded 10 points (3-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Thursday's 127-105 loss to the Pelicans.
Impact Green had a rough shooting performance Thursday, but that shouldn't surprise anyone who has been following the Rockets this season, as Green is prone to have efficiency issues. Even though he's averaging 14.4 points per game since the beginning of February, he's also shot 37 percent from the field and a mere 17.4 percent from three-point range in that span.

Drops triple-double in loss Green closed with 26 points (10-22 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 14 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Saturday's 122-113 loss to the Hawks.
Impact Green was spectacular despite the loss, recording his first triple-double of the season. While his counting stats were fantastic, his percentages left a little to be desired, much like they have all season. Green has been on a tear of late, making him a prime sell-high candidate for anyone doubting the sustainability of his recent production.

Goes for 30 points Tuesday Green chipped in 30 points (12-20 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 132-129 loss to the Pacers.
Impact Green is not known for being the most efficient shooter or scorer, but he made his presence felt during Tuesday's loss with one of his best performances of the entire campaign. He's been on an absolute tear of late after recording 30 or more points in four of his last six appearances, and while the lack of efficiency remains an issue in category-based leagues, Green is certainly going through his most productive stretch of the season.

Hot streak continues in loss Green amassed 31 points (11-20 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and three steals over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 110-99 loss to the Pelicans.
Impact Green led all scorers with 31 points, tallying at least 30 points for the third time in the past four games. Despite being well outside the top 150 for the season, Green has turned things around in recent times. He has been inside the top 30 over the past two weeks, averaging 24.6 points per game to go with 6.1 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.4 steals and 2.4 triples. While he should be rostered in all formats right now, managers should absolutely view this as a prime opportunity to move him for a top 70 player.

Returns to booming Green produced 34 points (12-23 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 12 rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 41 minutes during Monday's 135-119 win over the Lakers.
Impact Green has now compiled four 30-point games on the season, with two coming in his past three contests. The 21-year-old delivered an excellent blend of three-level scoring Monday while facilitating with only one turnover. Green's rebounding activity could be symbolic of an intensity surge, as he's racked up 31 boards over his last three games.

Season-high 36 points vs. Hornets Green amassed 36 points (12-20 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 11-12 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals across 28 minutes during Friday's 138-104 win over the Hornets.
Impact Friday's performance was Green's highest scoring output since Feb. 8, 2023 when he scored 41 points against the Kings, and it was the first time the third-year guard 30-plus points in a game this season. Green has scored in double-digits in all but one game in January, though he continues to struggle from distance. He is shooting 26.3 percent from beyond the arc in January and just 13.2 percent on 6.3 attempts per game over his last six appearances.

Scores 29 vs. Blazers Green supplied 29 points (12-24 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 137-131 overtime loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Green led the Rockets in scoring in a game that went to overtime. He didn't contribute much more in the box score, but the third-year guard is capable of having productive nights on the offensive side of the floor every night. Green's efficiency is of some concern, as he's shooting 39.4 percent from the floor in January, including 27.2 percent from three while attempting 7.1 shots from beyond the arc per game.
