The team drafted Green with the No. 2 pick of the 2021 draft. He spent four seasons with them, averaging 20.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game. His trade came as a bit of a shock, as the 23-year-old was viewed as a potential star in the making.

On Wednesday, Green addressed his departure, penning down a message for fans in Houston. He posted a link to his message on X and made a bold prediction.
