However, their respective long-term outlook with the Rockets are not all that clear. Green and Sengun both have a guaranteed contract with Houston up to the end of the 2024-25 season. Plus, according to ESPN’s NBA insider Shams Charania, Green and Sengun don’t have max contract offers on the table at the moment.Green and Sengun, both 22, are not just looking for mere extensions; they are looking for maximum deals. As Charania noted, both players believe they are max-contract players.That said, the Rockets have time to think, as they have a season to judge both players, especially Green, who has yet to develop into a consistently efficient offensive weapon. Through three seasons in the NBA, Green, who was the second-overall pick in the 2021 NBA draft, has averaged 19.8 points on 42.1 field goal percentage and 49.6 effective field goal percentage.Sengun, on the other hand, has averaged 14.9 points, 7. 9 rebounds, and 3.8 assists while shooting 52.8 percent from the floor in 210 games with the Rockets.<h2>Fans react to Houston Rockets youngsters Jalen Green, Alperen Sengun updates</h2>“Max contract for Jalen Green is INSANE.”<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">Max contract for Jalen Green is INSANE.— Tglizz (@TheRealTglizz) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheRealTglizz/status/1847374460577599988?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">October 18, 2024</a><input type="image" src="empty.gif" style="opacity:0" onerror="s=document.createElement(&quot;script&quot;);s.src=&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;;document.body.appendChild(s);"></blockquote>“Imagine giving Jalen Green anything close to a max 😂”<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">Imagine giving Jalen Green anything close to a max 😂— The Real (@TheRealGrindNY) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheRealGrindNY/status/1847371358587801671?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">October 18, 2024</a><input type="image" src="empty.gif" style="opacity:0" onerror="s=document.createElement(&quot;script&quot;);s.src=&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;;document.body.appendChild(s);"></blockquote>“neither has earned it yet. the only guys i would currently give extensions to are FVV, Amen, and Eason.
