Ignore his worst category (field-goal %) and he's worth -1.13.
The talent is top-100 easy, but a hamstring that wrecked him to 32 games is the whole story, and our 60-game call banks the 82-game iron-man base under the one hamstring year, and bets on a body that hasn't proven it can hold. You're drafting volume scoring and threes with a real efficiency drag and a flashing availability light — price the risk, not the name.
Jalen Green enters 2026-27 at #154 on our board — Round 13 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 17.5 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 26.7 minutes a night. The value is built on threes and scoring, with field-goal percentage the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-field-goal percentage builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 60 games, which is priced into his draft value.
