Jalen Green is undergoing "multiple tests" after reinjuring his right hamstring in Saturday's 114-103 road win on Nov. 8 against the Los Angeles Clippers, Phoenix Suns coach Jordan Ott said.

Ott opened his pregame availability Monday, Nov. 10, in advance of his team's game against the New Orleans Pelicans, providing an update on Green's status.

Green initially strained his hamstring in training camp leading up to Phoenix's preseason opener on Oct. 3 against the Los Angeles Lakers at Palm Desert, California. He aggravated it the following week while in China for two preseason games against the Brooklyn Nets.

After missing the first eight games of the 2025-26 regular season, Green made his debut Nov. 6 against the Los Angeles Clippers at Mortgage Matchup Center. Green scored a game-high 29 points, hitting six 3s, the most for a Suns player in his Suns debut, in leading Phoenix to a 115-102 win against the Clippers.

Green then reinjured his right hamstring in the first quarter of the Nov. 8 victory over the Clippers in Inglewood. Dribbling into the paint, Green made a pass to Ryan Dunn for a corner 3 and immediately hobbled to the Suns bench in serious pain, grabbing at the back of his right leg.

Green didn't miss a game in either of his last two seasons with the Houston Rockets. The Suns acquired Green, Dillon Brooks and the 10th overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, 7-footer Khaman Maluach, from the Rockets in the Kevin Durant trade.
