This summer, he committed himself to growth. Team sources said the staff was particularly pleased with the young guard’s conditioning and fitness level, especially in early August when players are still in the midst of vacationing. He’s trained in California with other NBA players, sessions which head coach Ime Udoka has frequented. Green arrived at Team USA camp stronger, fitter and most importantly, smarter. Word from Vegas was he picked up the system quickly, was extremely coachable and was an eager learner.

I am definitely of the opinion that these guys with the g league take offseason more seriously. Going from high school immediately to a man’s league makes you realize so fast how much conditioning is necessary. Wasn’t he always 6’6”?
So far, no All Star appearances for 2021 draft class members. Most of us thought Jalen would be the ROTY. He just might be the first All Star from his class. He’s going to be awesome, for sure. Then will come the question of whether or not he’s skilled enough to be the best player on a championship team.
I'm glad to see as a rockets fan I can't lie he had me very worried last off season he was doin fashion shows and bullshit all summer it really made me question his work ethic but he put that to bed this off season he wants to be great
I might be setting myself up for disappointment but my expectations are huge for Jalen and the rockets I really think he could be one of the ones
Listed at 6’6 means hes 6’5.. maybe
