Jalen Green's scoring tear continues as Rockets blast Suns

Jalen Green didn't sprint out to a statement-level start in the opening weeks of his sophomore season with the Houston Rockets.

The No. 2 pick in the 2021 draft shot just 36 percent from the field in the October portion of the 2022-23 season, and his second campaign in the NBA hit its nadir just before Thanksgiving as he combined for 32 points on 25 shots (including a 1 of 12 mark from three) in a pair of home losses to the Pacers and Warriors. Perhaps the holiday break put him back on the right track.
