PHOENIX -- Jalen Green helped to build the Houston Rockets from the ground up since being drafted No. 2 overall in 2021, as they went from the worst team in the Western Conference his first two years in the league all the way to the No. 2 seed in the West this past season with Green as their leading scorer.

It’s for the better of the team,” Jalen Green tells the Houston Chronicle’s Danielle Lerner. “I know it’s a business at the end of the day.”

In a recent interview with the Houston Chronicle, Jalen Green opened up about his feelings surrounding his trade to Phoenix.

Houston Rockets traded away second-year wing Cam Whitmore for two second-round picks, but was this an underwhelming return?

Hearing that stuff is pretty cool,” Reed Sheppard says of Houston making him off-limits during recent trade talks. “It gives me a lot of confidence.”

The Houston Rockets have made yet another move as they continue to build their ideal NBA roster this offseason.
