Rockets coach Stephen Silas seeks balance in developing Jalen Green
Prior to Friday’s late game in Golden State, Houston Rockets head coach Stephen Silas was asked one more time about his decisions Wednesday’s close victory at Utah. Specifically, the choice was playing reserve sharpshooter Garrison Mathews — who clearly had the hot hand, with five 3-pointers and a team-high 23 points — for 19 straight minutes to end the game. The starter who stayed on the bench to make room in the closing lineup was rookie guard Jalen Green.
