Fantasy Impact:
Green scored 15.0 points in the Rockets' win over the Thunder, producing a palatable performance featuring 7.0 rebounds. With his scoring being a primary contributor to his value, games such as these can be somewhat underwhelming; however, Green has been able to cushion his production floor by producing across other categories consistently enough to have some confidence in his ability to put forth worthwhile outings that can positively impact his overall contribution to your rotation strategy. He profiles as a points specialist, but as we have seen, he has some upside as an understated multi-categorical contributor. Green warrants must-roster consideration in most season-long leagues, although his appeal in daily formats may be a bit limited due to the matchup-sensitive nature of his value. He has a usage rate of 26.9 percent, a plus-minus of 2.0, and averages 31.5 minutes, 18.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.4 blocks per game while shooting 42.4 percent from the floor and 34.9 percent from beyond the arc.
