Suns' Jalen Green Exits Clippers Game With Apparent Hamstring Reinjury

An official diagnosis is pending, leaving the Suns to proceed cautiously.

Overview

  • Green grabbed at his right hamstring after a second‑quarter drive and kick, then was helped to the locker room and did not return.
  • The guard had missed the season opener and the next seven games with the same hamstring issue before briefly returning.
  • In his lone full game back, he scored 29 points in 23 minutes and showed immediate chemistry with Devin Booker.
  • Head coach Jordan Ott has treated the soft‑tissue problem conservatively given the risk of re‑aggravation.
  • Phoenix has leaned on depth during his absences, with strong showings from Booker, Royce O’Neale, Grayson Allen, Ryan Dunn and Collin Gillespie.
