Jeff Green logged 19 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers, accumulating 19 points (7-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, one steal and four three-pointers.
Jeff Green amassed 16 points (6-of-7 FGs), one rebound, two assists and four three-pointers in 22 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Jazz.
Tari Eason sitting out Houston’s second game in as many nights led to Jabari Smith Jr. moving into the starting lineup, and his absence also freed up rotation minutes for Green. Uncle Jeff made the most of his minutes, missing only one of his seven shots and scoring a season-high 16 points. He has reached double figures in four of his last five appearances, but the inconsistent playing time makes Green a player who should not be rostered in most fantasy leagues.
The Rockets will start Amen Thompson, Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Jeff Green and Alperen Sengun against the Kings on Thursday.
Jeff Green will get the starting nod in place of Fred VanVleet, who is sidelined due to personal reasons. Amen Thompson and Alperen Sengun will likely take over playmaking duties, and while Green will likely see extra minutes, he is a risky streaming option.
Jeff Green shot 2-of-3 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line in Friday’s loss to the Celtics, tallying seven points, five rebounds, one steal, and one 3-pointers in 29 minutes.
