UPDATE: Green will not return.

With 2:21 left in the first quarter of Friday’s game against the Atlanta Hawks, Jalen Green was replaced by Ryan Dunn. There’s been no mention of exactly what happened, but Green is in the locker room with an undisclosed issue.

Prior to exiting, Green contributed four points, a rebound and an assist in four minutes of action off the bench.

Dunn and Jordan Goodwin would likely be the biggest beneficiaries if Green is unable to return.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
