On April 4, Beijing time, although they lost to the Timberwolves at home, the purpose of the Rockets was achieved - while the game was broken, many of the Rockets' rookie players also played first-class data. Jaylen Green has scored 30+ points in four consecutive games, and jaylen Green continues to maintain a good feel and form against the Timberwolves.
In the 36 minutes, Jaylen Green hit 12 of 18 shots, 4 of 8 from three-point range and 3 of 6 from the free throw line, not only scoring 31 points, but also picking up 2 rebounds and delivering 5 assists, with only 2 turnovers. Jaylen Green is not simply crazy to score points, every time he sees his teammates have a free shot opportunity, he will always ignore his own data, first send basketball to his teammates, and help his teammates to complete the score. So this game Jaylen Green delivered five assists, and that's how it came.
Jaylen Green is not only a super scorer, he is also a very selfless rookie. In addition to Jaylen Green's 31 points, the Rockets' other rookie, Christopher, also ushered in his own explosion. In this game, 20-year-old rookie Christopher shot 11 of 14 in 30 minutes, 3 of 5 from three-point range and 5 of 7 from the free throw line, and exploded 30 points, 3 rebounds and 2 steals, while 30 points in a single game was a new toefl career scoring high.
Green + TOEFL, the Rockets' best backcourt rookie players, combined 61 points in one game. According to statistics, Christopher and Green have become the "first" in NBA history - the two have become the first rookie players in NBA history to bomb 30+ points in a game. Is that already the upper limit for Jaylen Green and Christopher? Definitely not!
We know that Jaylen Green only played this first-class performance after All-Star Weekend, and before that, the Rockets didn't give Jaylen Green enough tactical position and shots, as did Christopher. But now the Rockets have taken a few breaks off, and finally waited for the rise of Green, TOEFL and Shin Kyung. Jaylen Green still has a lot of room to improve, and knowing that he is only a 20-year-old rookie player, Green has promised that he will try to continue training this summer.
Christopher's side is also far from the ceiling. Silas has said that in this summer's offseason, it will help Christopher improve his shooting ability. Christopher himself said that he would train more to improve his jump shooting ability. With 61 points in a single game, Jaylen Green and Christopher have only just cashed in on some talent, the sky is their limit, and their room for improvement is still huge, but the Rockets must be patient, and they still have to reuse them next season and give them enough opportunities to perform.
