Green (hip/hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Green suffered a hip contusion following a hard fall to the court during Friday's game versus Cleveland, and he's still dealing with his lingering hamstring issue. If Green is able to push through his injuries, he may face restrictions out of precaution.

Suns' Jalen Green: Chips in 11 points, bruises hip
Rotowire
Suns head coach Jordan Ott said after Friday's 126-113 win over the Cavaliers that Green suffered a hip contusion following a hard fall to the court during the game, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic repots. Green finished the game with 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 16 minutes.
Green was back in action following a three-game absence due to a right hamstring injury, which has caused him to miss most of the season. Though Green was on a minutes restriction in his return, Ott indicated that the young guard's hamstring checked out fine during Friday's game. However, Green has a new health concern that he's tending to in advance of Sunday's game against the Clippers, though Ott seemed to downplay the hip issue for the most part. If Green does get cleared to play Sunday, he's still likely to operate with a restriction for that game and at least a few more contests after that.

Suns' Jalen Green: Sitting out Thursday
Rotowire
Green is out for Thursday's game against the Pistons due to right hamstring injury management.
Green just can't seem to get past the injury that's troubled him since training camp, and the Suns continue to exercise caution with the star guard. Until Green finally gets back up to speed, Jordan Goodwin should continue to take on a more prominent role in the Phoenix backcourt. Jamaree Bouyea should remain in the mix as well.

Suns' Jalen Green: Questionable for Thursday
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Pistons.
Green has missed the past two games for Phoenix after aggravating his hamstring injury, but he was able to get a workout in Tuesday and head coach Jordan Ott said that he would not require a full practice before he's cleared to return, so perhaps he'll be able to get back out there Thursday night. If he is cleared to return, Grayson Allen and Jordan Goodwin's usage rate could dip a bit.

Rotowire
Green (hamstring) will not play Tuesday against the Nets.

Suns' Jalen Green: Iffy for Tuesday
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nets.
Green seemingly aggravated a right hamstring injury in Friday's loss to Atlanta and may miss a second consecutive contest due to injury management. If the 23-year-old shooting guard isn't cleared to suit up, Grayson Allen and Collin Gillespie would be candidates for increased minutes, while Isaiah Livers could remain in the Phoenix rotation.

Suns' Jalen Green: Won't play Sunday
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Miami, Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix reports.
Green appeared to aggravate a right hamstring injury during the Suns' loss to the Hawks on Friday. It's the same injury that has limited the fifth-year pro to just four regular-season games, and Sunday will officially mark his 42nd missed game of the 2025-26 campaign. Grayson Allen and Collin Gillespie are the top candidates to start in the backcourt for the Suns due to the absences of Green and Devin Booker (ankle).

Rotowire
Green (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against Miami, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Suns' Jalen Green: Leaves with hamstring issue
Rotowire
Green won't return to Friday's game against the Hawks due to right hamstring tightness, Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix reports.
Appearing in just his second game after missing over two months due to a right hamstring strain, Green exited to the locker room in the first quarter due to tightness in that same hamstring. The Suns will exercise caution and hold the 23-year-old guard out for the remainder of the game. He'll finish with four points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one assist across four minutes. If he's forced to miss additional time, Grayson Allen and Ryan Dunn would be candidates to see increased minutes.

Suns' Jalen Green: Exits to locker room
Rotowire
Green (undisclosed) exited to the locker room during Friday's game against the Hawks, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
It's unclear why Green exited to the locker room, though it's worth noting that this is just his second game back from an extended absence due to a right hamstring strain. The 23-year-old guard should be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light.

Suns' Jalen Green: Plays 20 minutes in return
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) finished Tuesday's 116-110 win over Philadelphia with 12 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals across 20 minutes.
Heading into Tuesday, Green had been limited to just three appearances all season due to a right hamstring strain and a subsequent aggravation, but he got the green light to play for the first time since Nov. 8. Because he was operating with a strict minutes limit, Green was deployed all the bench and delivered all 12 of his points in the game's first three quarters. Green's minutes should ramp up as he gets reconditioned, and he could eventually bump Collin Gillespie to a reserve role once his playing-time restriction is lifted.

Suns' Jalen Green: Coming off bench in return
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) will be available off the bench for Tuesday's game versus the 76ers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Suiting up for the first time since Nov. 8 and for what will be his third appearance of the season following a lengthy absence due to a right hamstring strain, Green will be brought off the bench in order for the Suns to better manage his minutes. Green will likely be operating with a restriction for his first few games back from injury, so fantasy managers in shallower leagues may not necessarily want to activate him right away while he shakes off the rust and gets ramped back up.

Suns' Jalen Green: Cleared from injury report
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) is officially off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Green is all set to return from his second lengthy absence of the season due to a hamstring strain. The star guard is likely to face a minutes restriction Tuesday and should be monitored closely for a few weeks. Collin Gillespie and Royce O'Neale appear to be the most likely candidates to move to the bench if Green starts during his return.

Suns' Jalen Green: Ready for Tuesday return
Rotowire
Green (hamstring), who has been ruled out for Monday's game in Brooklyn, will play Tuesday against the 76ers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Green is ready for just his third appearance of the 2025-26 campaign after putting a right hamstring strain behind him. He figures to be on a minutes limit in his first game back considering he hasn't played in a game since Nov. 8 and will presumably need at least a few games to get his legs under him before the Suns hand him a full workload. Grayson Allen figures to lose out on playing time as Green begins to ramp back up.

Green hasn't played since Nov. 8 due to a right hamstring strain and will remain on the shelf Monday.

His next opportunity to play will come Tuesday against Philadelphia.

Suns' Jalen Green: Chance to return Monday
Rotowire
Green (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Nets.
Green hasn't played since Nov. 8 due to a right hamstring strain but could return to the lineup Monday. The 23-year-old guard has participated in 5-on-5 work recently, and he appears to be nearing a return even if he isn't cleared to play against Brooklyn. While the fifth-year pro will likely operate under a minutes restriction whenever he comes back, his eventual return would leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Jordan Goodwin, Collin Gillespie and Grayson Allen.

Green (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Knicks.
Green hasn't played since Nov. 8 due to a right hamstring strain, though head coach Jordan Ott said Tuesday that he has progressed to "playing with some players and coaches," according to Shane Young of Suns.com. The 23-year-old guard's next opportunity to play will come Monday against the Nets.

Green hasn't played since Nov. 8 due to a right hamstring strain and remains without a concrete timetable for a return. While the 23-year-old shooting guard is expected to be re-evaluated soon, he should be considered doubtful for future contests until the Suns offer an update on his progress.
