While Green and Goodwin sat out Friday’s loss to the Lakers, Williams started and played 20 minutes. With the Suns having already secured the No. 7 seed, whichever regulars are available may not play much against the Thunder. This could be a game in which players like Rasheer Fleming, Amir Coffey and Khaman Maluach play significant minutes.

Green’s sore right knee, which ended his time on the floor in the first quarter of Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks, will keep him out on Friday. Phoenix is locked into the No. 7 seed in the West, so ensuring that he’s at full strength for Tuesday’s Play-In Tournament game is the priority. Grayson Allen and Collin Gillespie will take on bigger roles within the Suns’ offense.

Green exited Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks during the first quarter due to a sore right knee. The Suns will be the No. 7 seed in the West regardless of what happens in their final two regular-season games, so this may be an opportunity to get Green additional rest at the end of an injury-riddled campaign.

Green left the first quarter of Wednesday’s game against the Mavericks after just four minutes of action. He limped off the floor and headed to the locker room, and although he was never ruled out, he was ultimately deemed questionable before never returning. Green has struggled with injuries throughout his first season in Phoenix, and another one this late into the schedule is certainly untimely. His injury status will be one to monitor with just two regular-season games remaining.

Green struggled on Tuesday, missing all four of his three-point attempts. Over his last four games, the Suns guard has shot 5-of-22 from beyond the arc. While productive nights in the mid-range and around the basket boosted Green’s points tally in games against the Suns and Bulls, he only made five two-pointers against the Rockets. He’ll look to bounce back on Wednesday against the Mavericks.

Green picked up where he left off in Thursday’s loss to the Hornets as the 24-year-old guard had another 25-point game. He’s now had at least 20 points in eight of his last nine outings. Green has provided top-75 per game value over the last two weeks. His scoring and fantasy value have been on another level since the beginning of March. The Suns finish the regular season with four games in the final week, which includes a matchup against Green’s former team the Rockets on Tuesday.

While Devin Booker cooled off considerably in the second half of Thursday’s 127-107 defeat, Green was solid throughout. The Suns’ guard shot over 50 percent from the field and finished with a complete stat line, including seven assists and three “stocks.” With Phoenix ending its Week 22 in Chicago on Sunday, that could be a big day for Green, with the Bulls headed for the draft lottery.

Green’s streak of 20-point performances grew to five games on Monday, with efficient shooting both inside and outside the arc leading him to finish as the Suns’ second-leading scorer. The athletic scoring guard likely could have seen even greater numbers if not for the Suns taking a sizable lead in the fourth quarter, which would leave him on the bench for the entire final frame. Still, Green walks away with solid production and a low minutes total before Tuesday’s second game of a back-to-back against Orlando.

Green was outstanding on Saturday, shooting over 50 percent from the field and committing no turnovers. Just as good for the Suns was that he only needed to play 22 minutes, as the Suns outscored Utah by 18 points in the first quarter and remained in control throughout. While his category league value has remained low since the All-Star break, Green has been a solid option in points leagues. That should not change in Week 23, with the Suns playing four games.

Green has now scored at least 20 points in eight of his last ten games. While field-goal percentage can be an issue for the Suns’ guard, he made more than half of his attempts in Sunday’s rout of the Raptors. Add in the assists, and this was a nice ending to Week 21 for Green. The Suns play two games in Week 22, starting with the Nuggets on Tuesday, so the upcoming schedule isn’t great.

After totaling 26 points on 10-of-37 shooting in his prior two appearances, Green was much more efficient on Saturday. The Suns’ guard made more than half of his shot attempts from the field, which included a 3-of-6 night from beyond the arc. Green struggled at the foul line, but what he does from the field is of far greater concern for fantasy managers. He’ll look to finish Week 21 on a high note when the Suns host the Raptors on Sunday.

On the heels of hot-shooting, back-to-back 30-point performances, Green’s production cooled on Monday. In the loss, he narrowly made it past the 20-point mark, which he needed high-volume shooting to do. The first-year Phoenix Sun also had little impact as a passer. Yet, Green secured a team-high in rebounds to help boost his overall fantasy production on the night. He’ll have a chance to bounce back on Tuesday against the Timberwolves.

Green has scored 24 points or more in five straight games, his most productive run of the season to date. The 34 points on Friday were two shy of his season high, set Thursday night against the Pacers. Fantasy managers will hope that Green can carry this production over into Week 21, as the Suns are scheduled to play five games. With two back-to-backs, he may not be a lock to play in all five, but three games of Green at this level is nothing to scoff at.

This was a fantastic showing for Phoenix’s two star guards. Both Green and Devin Booker set new season-highs for scoring, and Green is now averaging 27.5 points while shooting 50.6 percent from the floor over his last four games. Injuries have made this a frustrating season for Green, but he has been productive since the All-Star break. He’ll look to stay hot in Toronto on Thursday to wrap up the week.

In the nine games he played since the All-Star break, Green averaged 17.6 points while shooting 35.3 percent from the field. Against the Bucks, the Suns guard cleaned up the shooting, making 50 percent of his attempts while also recording solid numbers in the rebound and assist categories. Green has failed to provide top-150 value since the All-Star break; hopefully, Tuesday’s performance is the spark that he’s needed.

Having scored at least 20 points in three of his last four games, Green has averaged 17.6 points per game since the All-Star break. However, he’s still working to find his groove, as evidenced by the Suns guard shooting 35.3 percent from the field during this stretch. The Suns hit the road for all three of their games in Week 20, starting with the Bucks on Tuesday.

Green now has at least 20 points in two of his last three games. The 24-year-old shooting guard has also played at least 30 minutes in three consecutive games, which bodes well for his scoring floor and ceiling going forward. The Suns close out the week against the Hornets on Sunday.

While Green did rack up seven turnovers on Tuesday, the overall stat line was solid. And it was good to see him record another 20-point game, something that had occurred just once in the seven games Green played before Tuesday. During that run, he averaged 13.9 points on 33.1 percent shooting from the field and 20.8 percent from three. Against the Kings, Green was only 2-of-8 from three, but he shot 5-of-8 inside the arc. And having Devin Booker back in the fold should help with Green’s shot quality moving forward.

Green is good to go after being listed as questionable on the initial injury report. Due to the Suns’ many injuries on the perimeter, even more of the offense will run through Green and Collin Gillespie against the Trail Blazers.

Green capped Saturday’s double-overtime win over the Magic with a game-winning three as time expired. Of greater interest to fantasy managers was that he logged 37 minutes, which casts some doubt on his availability for Sunday’s game. Phoenix is already shorthanded on the perimeter, so Amir Coffey will likely enter the rotation, especially if Green can’t play.

Green had to shoulder an extra load on Thursday, as his backcourt mate, Devin Booker, was lost to injury after just nine minutes. Green took the majority of the shots and did a good job of converting efficiently, with his four three-pointers leading to just the second 20-point game of the season for him. Regardless of Booker’s health moving forward, Green will be counted on often when on the court. He’ll have a chance to produce on Saturday against the Magic.

The Suns are without Dillon Brooks, who’s serving a one-game suspension after picking up his 16th technical foul of the season during the team’s final game before the All-Star break. As a result, Green will make his third start of the season and first since November 8.

Like Devin Booker, Green is good to go after sitting out the Suns’ final game before the All-Star break. His return likely bumps Jamaree Bouyea out of the rotation, especially with Grayson Allen also available to play. Bouyea’s availability does not affect fantasy basketball.

Green is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder for right hamstring injury management reasons. The 24-year-old shooting guard has only been playing around 20 minutes per game, so if he’s ruled out his absence won’t have a major impact on the Suns’ rotation.

Green is back after a four-game absence. He was under a minutes restriction due to a second hamstring strain, so fantasy managers should expect the same on Saturday. With Grayson Allen (ankle) out, the Suns should not have to make too many changes to the rotation to get Green into the mix.

Green has missed Phoenix’s last four games since taking a hard fall during a January 30 win over the Cavaliers, and he was already having his playing time managed due to a strained hamstring. If he’s able to play on Saturday, Green will likely have his playing time restricted, but it would still help the Suns account for Grayson Allen’s absence.

This will be a third straight absence for Green, which means Collin Gillespie and Jordan Goodwin will still play significant minutes. Green has only played a limited reserve role when available, so his immediate return won’t drastically alter the Suns’ rotation.

Green will miss a second consecutive game due to the hamstring and hip injuries. His absence frees up additional minutes for Jordan Goodwin, who is worth streaming in deeper category leagues.

Green also missed Sunday’s game against the Clippers with the same ailments. With the 23-year-old’s absence extending into Tuesday’s game, Jordan Goodwin and Collin Gillespie should play a full complement of minutes.

Green missed Phoenix’s last game, but there is a chance he returns for this one. He has had his minutes severely limited when he’s been available recently, so he will likely play around 15-20 minutes off the bench if he is available. Collin Gillespie and Jordan Goodwin may lose out on a few minutes.
