Suns’ G Jalen Green on experience recovering from injury before debut
Phoenix Suns guard Jalen Green explains what it was like to deal with and recover from injury. Green returned and made his Suns debut on Nov. 6, 2025.
LOS ANGELES – The Phoenix Suns will play the Los Angeles Clippers for the third time in just their 10th game of the season Saturday, Nov. 8, at Intuit Dome.
The game will be televised on ESPN and Arizona’s Family (3TV).
The Suns (4-5) have split the first two games against the Clippers (3-5), losing the first one, 129-102, last month in Inglewood and winning the rematch, 115-102, Nov. 6 in Jalen Green’s debut with his new team.
Green scored a game-high 29 points, going 6-of-13 from 3 to mark a Phoenix franchise record for most made 3s in a Suns debut.
The Clippers were without James Harden (personal reasons) and Kawhi Leonard (right ankle sprain) for Thursday’s game, but Harden is set to return for Saturday’s matchup while Leonard remains out.
Dillon Brooks is questionable for the Suns. He’s missed the last six games with a core muscle strain that was initially diagnosed as right groin soreness. He’s averaging a career-high 19.3 points in the three games he played to start the season with the Suns.
The Suns and Clippers play each other four times with the final matchup being Feb. 1 in Phoenix.
