Suns Rule Jalen Green Out for Two Games as Debut Could Come Monday

Team officials plan a re-evaluation at the end of the three-game trip, keeping him with the group to monitor progress.

Overview

  • Coach Jordan Ott ruled Green out for Friday at the Clippers and Saturday at the Nuggets, with Monday at Utah cited as the earliest possible debut.
  • Green sustained a low-grade right hamstring strain in training camp and re-aggravated it during the Suns’ preseason trip to China, costing him the entire preseason and opening games.
  • Green is traveling with the team on the road swing, and his status will be updated at the trip’s conclusion.
  • With Green sidelined, Grayson Allen started alongside Devin Booker, while Collin Gillespie logged expanded bench minutes in the opener.
  • Newly acquired center Mark Williams debuted with six points and 11 rebounds under a minutes limit, and his back-to-back availability will be determined game by game.
