Jalen Green has been ruled out for a sixth consecutive regular-season game due to a strained right hamstring, according to the NBA's official injury report. The 23-year-old shooting guard also missed the entire preseason because of the hamstring injury, though he's currently considered day-to-day, according to Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com.

That said, Green took a direct shot at a particular team in the Eastern Conference, and further, two pretty clear individual players on that team. The team is the New York Knicks, and the two players he's basically citing as a major reason for what he believes is a ceiling short of contention are Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns .
