According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Jalen Green has signed a $106 million extension with the Houston Rockets. It has been inked for three years.

This deal will see Green make $33.3 million in the first year and $36 million in the second and third years as well. A player option has been attached to the end of this deal.

The 22-year-old is the first player to negotiate a 2-plus-1 rookie extension on a nine-figure deal. This isn’t atypical behavior from Green, as he’s also the first-ever G League player to sign an NBA contract straight out of the draft.

Last season, in all 82 games, Green averaged 19.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in 31.7 minutes.

In separate but related news, Houston has extended Alperen Sengun to a five-year, $185 million deal.

Jalen Green’s Trade Value Growing Ahead Of Deadline

According to Zach Lowe of ESPN, Houston Rockets‘ guard Jalen Green has “generated some trade buzz” around the league with the deadline approaching teams in the coming days.

With his role being decreased and the team not sold on him, there has been a spike of interest in a highly offensive-minded guard. If a team inquires about him, it is with the mindset of putting younger athletes around the 21-year-old. Green is in his third season in the association.

Houston is ready to make a playoff push, and they don’t feel Green should be the focal point of this team; he’s not a primary basketball player; they view him as a third or fourth option.

Ime Udoka is ready to transform this team, and he feels as though Alperen Sengun is the central piece to build around, which makes sense given his rising impact on the Rockets.

Jalen Green is shut down for a little bit due to a bad injury!

Jalen Green is shut down for a little bit due to a bad injury! The rookie guard of one of the worst teams in the NBA, sorry Houston fans, will be without the rising star – Jalen Green. Green suffered a hamstring injury will that will keep him out of competition for at least a week, hopefully the injury isn’t too impactful to where it keeps him out for an extended amount of time.

The rookie is averaging 14 points per game from 38.2% from the floor as the 2-16 Rockets are hoping to get something from this pitiful start. This team here snapped their 15-game losing streak in an impressive, yet shocking, win over the Bulls. Silas’s team is looking to rebound.

Can they? Hopefully, but they will have to do it without Green for the next week.
