Jeff Green Enjoys Flawless Shooting Performance Off Bench
5 years agoHouston Rockets forward Jeff Green was remarkably efficient during his time on the floor against the Magic on Sunday. In 27 minutes off the bench, he scored 18 points on a perfect 8-for-8 shooting from the field, including one three-pointer. Green also tallied five rebounds and came up with a steal in the 106-126 Houston loss. Sunday's defeat marked the fourth in a row for the Rockets, which has resulted in them plummeting to the sixth seed in the Western Conference. Green's play as of late has been a lone bright spot for the team. He is averaging 18.3 points per game over his last three outings, meaning owners should consider grabbing him off of the waiver wire. He should have an opportunity to continue his streak of excellent scoring against the Timberwolves on Tuesday, who rank in the bottom half of the league in defensive rating.
