Jalen Green (thigh) good to go Monday for Rockets
Houston Rockets shooting guard Jalen Green (left thigh contusion) is available Monday versus the Golden State Warriors.
What It Means:
Green was initially listed as questionable, but he warmed up and is good to go. The 21-year-old logged 39 minutes on Sunday versus the New Orleans Pelicans and scored 40 points on 11-22 field goals and 4-9 3-pointers. Josh Christopher could see an uptick in playing time if Green is limited.
Green has a $7,500 salary on Monday’s six-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 35.8 FanDuel points over 38.6 minutes. Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Rockets’ implied total (112.25) is No. 9 on the board and the game total (235.5) is the second-highest.
