Rockets rookie Jalen Green, drafted at No. 2 overall in the 2021 first round, has now joined Allen Iverson (1997) as the only NBA rookies in more than 40 years to score 30-plus points in five straight games.
Green kept his historic streak going with 30 points on 12-of-23 shooting (52.2%) on Tuesday in Brooklyn, including 4-of-10 on 3-pointers (40.0%). The 20-year-old also grabbed 6 rebounds in his 41 minutes.
