Draymond Green was back in the Warriors' lineup after missing the game against Atlanta Hawks due to a one-game suspension for his altercation with fellow teammate, 9-time All-Star, Kevin Durant.

Green has been at his usual best in the first month and is stuffing the stat sheet on a nightly basis. However, in this game, he remained scoreless after playing in the game for 24 minutes. He went 0-for-3 from the field, including 0-for-2 from downtown.

Although he could not score, he still tried to make an impact on the game and dished out 5 assists to go along with 5 rebounds. With Curry not available for the game and Green not scoring, the Warriors did not have enough firepower on offense to defeat a really good Rockets team at Toyota Center. Green also had five turnovers in this game and had an off-night in his return game.
