Green will come off the bench Saturday against the Trail Blazers.
Green started in Wednesday's 117-111 loss to the Spurs with Lauri Markkanen (wrist) unavailable, but Markkanen is back and starting Saturday, so Green will shift back to a reserve role. As a member of the second unit this season, Green is averaging 3.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in 14 minutes per contest.

Jazz's Josh Green: Starting sans Markkanen
Rotowire
Green will start Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
With Lauri Markkanen (wrist) unavailable, Green will draw his first start of the season. He's averaging 3.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in 14.0 minutes per contest across two regular-season appearances and will likely see a bump in minutes Wednesday.

Jazz's Josh Green: Logs 25 minutes off bench
Rotowire
Green amassed six points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 25 minutes during Monday's 110-105 loss to the Grizzlies.
Green saw the court for just the second time this season, thrown into a larger role after Jaren Jackson (knee) and Lauri Markkanen (wrist) were both forced from the game prior to half-time. However, despite the increased playing time, Green certainly didn't set the world on fire. Should Utah continue to deal with multiple injuries, Green could be in line for a meaningful short-term role. With that said, it wouldn't be surprising to see the team experiment with different rotations on a nightly basis, based on what is and isn't working.

Timberwolves' Josh Green: Unlikely to crack rotation
Rotowire
Green's future with Minnesota is uncertain following the team's agreement with Jonathan Kuminga.
Green currently sits near the bottom of the depth chart at both forward positions, and the Timberwolves reportedly need to create additional room below the second-apron hard cap before finalizing Kuminga's contract. Minnesota is expected to explore trades involving Green and could waive and stretch his expiring contract if it can't find a deal, making his eventual landing spot more important than his current place in the Timberwolves' rotation.

Hornets' Josh Green: Scoreless in season-ending loss
Rotowire
Green produced zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and two rebounds across 10 minutes during Friday's 121-90 Play-In Game loss to the Magic.
Green logged 11 or fewer minutes for a sixth straight game and didn't make much of an impact in his limited run during Charlotte's season-ending loss. The 25-year-old swingman missed the Hornets' first 24 regular-season games after undergoing left shoulder surgery in June and saw his role decline in 2025-26, averaging 4.3 points, 1.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.6 steals in 15.7 minutes per game across 58 regular-season appearances off the bench. He's under contract for one more season.

Hornets' Josh Green: Muted role continues
Rotowire
Green had three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and two rebounds across seven minutes during Tuesday's 113-102 loss to the Celtics.
Green played no more than seven minutes for the third time in the past four games, having seemingly moved to the fringe of the rotation. Despite a small amount of defensive upside, Green's lack of offensive versatility makes him a non-factor on that end of the floor.

Hornets' Josh Green: Scoreless in 14 minutes
Rotowire
Green provided zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in 14 minutes during Tuesday's 136-106 win over the Heat.
Green remains miles off the fantasy radar as a very small part of Charlotte's rotation. Over his last seven appearances, he's averaging just 17.0 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Josh Green: Scores 12 points off bench
Rotowire
Green notched 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals over 23 minutes during Sunday's 129-112 victory over the Wizards.
Green has now scored in double figures in back-to-back games for the first time this season. The 25-year-old forward has seen his role slightly increase in February, averaging 18.1 minutes per game after hovering around 15 minutes per contest in December and January. The former Mavericks wing is producing 6.9 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.4 threes, 1.0 steal and 0.8 assists this month.

Hornets' Josh Green: Season-high four steals
Rotowire
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: 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.

Hornets' Josh Green: Probable for Tuesday
Rotowire
Green (calf) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
Tuesday is the second night of a back-to-back, so the Hornets are keeping an eye on Green's calf issue. The sharpshooter has averaged 5.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 15.4 minutes per contest through five games this season.

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: Undergoes shoulder surgery
Rotowire
Green underwent surgery Friday to address the instability in his left shoulder and has no timetable for his return, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

He averaged 7.4 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists and a career-high 1.1 steals per game, shooting 42.8 percent from the floor and 39.1 percent from beyond the arc.
