Green produced 14 points (4-4 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and four steals across 23 minutes during Thursday's 109-99 victory over Houston.
The four steals were a season high for Green, who still hasn't been consistent enough to warrant much attention in the vast majority of fantasy leagues. Green has averaged 5.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.7 steals in 16.1 minutes per tilt in his last 10 games.

Hornets' Josh Green: Likely to play Monday
Rotowire
Green is probable for Monday's game against the Pelicans due to a right thumb sprain.
The thumb injury is new for Green, who has been dealing with a left Achilles injury of late, but he will likely be able to play through the former issue Monday. Over his past five appearances, Green is averaging just 4.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 15.6 minutes per contest, and he has failed to score a point in two of his last three games.

Hornets' Josh Green: Listed as available
Rotowire
Green (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
Tuesday is the second night of a back-to-back, but that won't stop Green from playing. The sharpshooter has averaged 5.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 15.4 minutes per contest through five games this year, so his fantasy appeal is minimal at this time.

Rotowire
Green ended with five points (2-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and three steals over 14 minutes during Saturday's 112-86 loss to Detroit.
Green continues to play a limited role off the bench, having now suited up in four straight games since returning from a shoulder injury. In those four appearances, Green has averaged just 4.5 points and 1.3 steals in 14.4 minutes per contest. He can be left alone, outside of very deep leagues.

Hornets' Josh Green: Won't play in finale
Rotowire
Green (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Green will miss his sixth consecutive game due to a shoulder injury, and the veteran forward will sit out this regular-season finale since the Hornets don't have anything to play for. This means DaQuan Jeffries, Wendell Moore, Nick Smith and Tidjane Salaun are likely to see expanded roles in the rotation. Green finishes the 2024-25 season with averages of 7.4 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.8 minutes per game across 68 appearances (67 starts).

Hornets' Josh Green: Off injury report for Tuesday
Rotowire
Green (shoulder) is not listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against Orlando.
After missing Sunday's game against Miami with a shoulder injury, Green is set to return to Charlotte's lineup Tuesday. Green has averaged 6.4 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.2 three-pointers in 26.9 minutes over 11 games in the month of March, leaving him with little fantasy appeal outside of triples and swipes.
