Jalen Green DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green led all scorers with 38 points on 13-for-25 shooting on Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors, helping the team tie the series at one with a 109-94 victory. The 23-year-old had a rough seven-point outing in his postseason debut on Sunday but looked like a completely different player in Game 2, hitting 8-for-18 from outside and completing his work with four rebounds, six assists, and three steals. Green tied a franchise record with eight triples made in a postseason game and became the youngest Rocket in history with 35-plus points in the playoffs. Houston will hope that this marks the end of Green's offensive slump, which included three regular-season games.

According to Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston, Houston Rockets guardJalen Green(knee) is available to suit up against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday. Green will be in the starting lineup despite having a right knee contusion. The 22-year-old will likely not have any restrictions placed on him during the contest and could be a solid fantasy option as he's averaging 20.0 points per game.

Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green has started 2025 red hot, but his run of success could come to a screeching halt on Tuesday after he was listed on the injury report as questionable with a right knee contusion. Green has averaged 27.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 35.3 minutes per game in his last three games. On Sunday against the Lakers, Green dropped 33 points in the Rockets' four-point win but also apparently picked up this knee injury. Green has played every one of the Rockets' 35 games this season, but if he's sidelined on Tuesday, Fred VanVleet would get much more usage while Cam Whitmore and Amen Thompson could also be lined up for more work as well. In such a favorable matchup, Green's availability will be a very important storyline to follow for Tuesday's slate.
