Rockets are likely to be without Jalen Green, Jae’Sean Tate, and Kevin Porter Jr today in LA. Get ready for some weird ass lineups – 11:41 AM

Rockets were already likely to be without Kevin Porter Jr. (doubtful, foot). Now won’t have Jalen Green (suspension).
Jae’Sean Tate played more bench minutes than any player Friday in Sacramento.

Ochai Agbaji has been in the rotation for six games and he’s already had to face DeMar DeRozan, Desmond Bane, Donovan Mitchell and James Harden.
That doesn’t even count guys like Franz Wagner or Jalen Green whose careers are just starting.
Every night is a gauntlet. – 9:26 PM

Jalen Green had 25 at the half. He’s stuck at 27. De’Aaron Fox and quick double-teams have slowed him to a crawl. – 12:24 AM

Looks like Jae’Sean Tate and Jalen Green left the bench area during the Monk/Mathews disagreement. Not good. – 12:04 AM

Garrison Mathews and Malik Monk each hit with Ts for their confrontation, with another for Kings’ Metu. But it looked like Jae’Sean Tate and Jalen Green left the bench area. Though both were acting as peacemakers, that could be trouble when the NBA checks it out tomorrow. – 12:03 AM

Kings 69, Rockets 66 at half. Jalen Green with 25.Mathews had 8 but what a look to tie it a the buzzer. He could not believe he missed it. Monk with 15, Fox 11. Kings 14 second-chance points. – 11:14 PM

Kings take the 69-66 lead over the Rockets into the half. Malik Monk leads Sacramento with 15 points in 11 minutes of action off the bench. Rockets get 25 from the Fresno native Jalen Green – 11:12 PM

Jalen Green with 22 points with 1:54 left in the first half. It’s his fourth 20-point half of the season. Two games ago, he had a season-low 9. Had 26 on Wednesday but on 9 of 25 shooting. He is 8 of 13 tonight, 4 of 5 on 3s. – 11:07 PM

More on this storyline
After playing in Houston at the end of the James Harden era in 2018-19 and 2019-20, Rivers is now in Minnesota, helping shepherd dynamic guard Anthony Edwards toward what the Timberwolves hope is a string of All-Star appearances across the next decade. Rivers highlighted the lack of such a veteran presence in Houston postgame on Sunday, noting its adverse impact on the Rockets’ own young guards, Kevin Porter Jr. and Jalen Green. “Someone needs to teach KPJ and Jalen how to play the right way, you know what I mean? They need those vets,” Rivers told Chron.com following Minnesota’s 104-96 victory. “I like those guys, they’re super talented, they can really score. … They need someone to help them take that next step.” -via Houston Chronicle / January 9, 2023
For next summer, the Rockets are flush with salary cap space and an appetite to make significant improvement in the standings. Rockets officials will have to evaluate how they believe Harden’s arrival would benefit the development of its young core of talent, including Jalen Green, Jabari Smith, and Kevin Porter Jr., but his stature and talent still make him an attractive proposition. -via ESPN / December 25, 2022
The Mavericks defeated the Rockets (112-106) behind 50 points from Luka Doncic. The Slovenian superstar also added 8 rebounds and 10 assists. After the game he talked about his opponent Jalen Green, saying that he is going to be a superstar and that Houston should build around him. “I think Jalen is going to be a superstar in this league,” Doncic said postgame. “He’s already a star, so they have a great guy here, so they should build around him.” -via TalkBasket / December 24, 2022
