The lineups (5-out, perimeter-oriented) Jalen Green is playing/excelling with now are the SAME lineups he was the lead ball-handler for in second units earlier this season. You can see the growth from them to now. He and Sengun, can, have, and will continue to be excel together. – 9:10 PM

Jalen Green drains consecutive 3s and he is up to 28 points on 8 of 15 shooting. Green and Amen Thompson a combined 17 of 26. Rest of Rockets 12 of 33, 1 of 11 on 3s. Wizards might want to get back to trapping Green. – 8:43 PM

Jalen Green has never in his career missed a shot in the week following being named player of the week. Small sample size, however. He is 3 of 3 for 9 points in the first 3 1/2 minutes. – 7:17 PM

StatMuse: Jalen Green tonight: 42 PTS 10 REB 7 3P The youngest player in NBA history to reach those numbers. statmuse.com/nba/player/jal… -via Twitter @statmuse / March 19, 2024
David Hardisty: Ime Udoka said he’s happy for Jalen Green’s progress. “The assist numbers, the shooting numbers, the defensive competitiveness, all those areas have really improved.” He added: “It’s not always going to happen overnight, and it’s a little slower for other people, but it’s really been clicking for him. Even before All-Star break, you could see some signs — the double-doubles in a row, the 5-game stretch he really had. To put it all together now, it’s even more needed with some guys going down.” -via Twitter @clutchfans / March 19, 2024
NBA Communications: Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green and New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson have been named the NBA Western and Eastern Conference Players of the Week, respectively, for Week 21 of the 2023-24 season (March 11-17). -via Twitter / March 18, 2024
