Green finished Friday's preseason game against the Spurs with 16 points (4-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT) and one assist.
Finishing out the preseason, the Rockets handled the game like somewhat of a dress rehearsal, as Green (32 minutes), Christian Wood (33) and Kevin Porter Jr. (33) all saw a full workload. The No. 2 overall pick has had an up-and-down preseason -- he's coming off of a seven-turnover effort against Toronto on Monday -- but he'll begin the regular season as a starter and is widely considered the favorite to lead all rookies in scoring. Whether Green will offer fantasy managers much beyond points and threes remains to be seen, however.
