    Good time for Jalen to rest up and work on his jumper.

    God damn. Jalen screwed the Rockets when he was here with his subpar play.

    And he is screwing the Rockets when he's gone by not suiting up for the Suns to tank their draft pick.

    Suns owner laughing his ass off at the Rockets taking their picks knowing they aren't anywhere close to appealing since Jalen isn't nosediving them.

    Fo sure but this time it does not look that bad, probably only out 1-2 weeks but at this point why bother before All Star Break which is only 3 weeks away......

    He'll take 40 shots to score 30 points a game.

    Jeez, that hamstring injury is really lingering...I thought he'd be solid for the Suns this season, but it feels like he's not even going to get a chance.

    Dillon Brooks all star bid on the way

    Their plan initially to have him come off the bench for 15 mpg was not that bad..... unfortunately that did not work out.

    Probably takes up to 9 months though.......

    At this point probably only use him in the Playoffs once or twice.......as a secret weapon.

    used to be. plus hamstring is tricky

    with how explosive jalen plays, it's even more difficult to keep it 100%

    What's strange is Jalen never had hamstring injuries before joining the Suns. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    My wild guess is maybe he added something new to his offseason workout regimen.

    He had minor injuries the last 2 years but when he was a rookie he had a medium severe Calf and Groin injury.......

    It seemed nothing but anatomically the calf, groin and hamstring are all well connected.

    He is not prone to those injuries but one can see that his playing style would cause those ligament injuries to happen over time.
