Rockets' Jalen Green: Suffers eye injury Tuesday

Green will be evaluated by an eye doctor Wednesday after taking a hit to his right eye during Tuesday's 120-111 loss to the Kings, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports. He ended the game with 28 points (9-14 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 34 minutes.

Green was able to play through the issue, though he said he experienced impaired vision after taking a hit to the eye, according to Feigen. The 22-year-old delivered a stellar performance with his 10th 20-plus-point outing of the season, but his status could be in jeopardy for Thursday's game against the Warriors. If Green is sidelined, Amen Thompson and Reed Sheppard are candidates to move into the starting five.
