Suns guard Jalen Green to debut against Clippers
After being acquired in the Kevin Durant trade, Jalen Green had not played for the Phoenix Suns due to a hamstring injury. This changed on Thursday.
Trade Details and Green's Background
Green, a 23-year-old guard who averaged 20.1 points per game over four seasons with the Houston Rockets, made his Suns debut after missing the entire preseason and the first eight games of the regular season due to a right hamstring strain.
During the 2025 offseason, Green was traded to the Suns along with Dillon Brooks and the No. 10 overall pick in the draft, which the Suns used to select Khaman Maluach. The deal completed the blockbuster Kevin Durant trade, sending Durant to Houston.
Green’s Impressions of the Suns
“Coming here, I got to know the team, and I picked up with everybody very fast,” Green said. “Everyone is cool and has the same goals and mentality, so that makes it easy when you’re chasing that same goal with somebody. … From the coaching staff, to the players, to the front office, everyone is just great. The relationships molded fast.”
Though new to Phoenix and having not played a game in Suns’ jersey, Green expressed confidence about his new team and shared that he has already formed strong relationships both on and off the court.
Summary
Jalen Green, a promising guard traded to the Suns, finally made his debut after injury delays, emphasizing strong team bonds and shared goals within Phoenix’s roster.
