NBA Suns' Suns' signing guard Jaylen Green was interviewed by an interactive interview in the United States podcast column and publicly talked about the basketball talent of former Rockets teammate Amen Thompson: "

I have always been very confident in my physical athletic talent, but I only had a real comparison after meeting Amen Thompson. He can be said to be the most athletic young player I have ever met, and he has an excellent sense of defense and judgment. I think he will definitely become a monster-level superstar in the NBA league in the future with a balanced offense and defense!"

"We often compete one-on-one singles when training in the Rockets. This is the mutual challenge game between young NBA players. I am very confident in the speed of flying dunks and rarely lose to Amen Thompson. But Amen's athletic talent, potential, and The desire to survive and so on are super strong. He is a very difficult opponent, so as his defensive target, it is really troubled. Look at the core Warriors stars Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler in the first round of the playoffs, you will understand the dilemma of Amen's fierce defensive and offensive end! "

Amen Thompson's first playoff in his career, facing the Warriors in the first three games. Not applicable, it averaged only 10 points per game, with a shooting percentage of 41.0%; but Amen averaged 20.0 points + 7.8 rebounds + 2.5 assists + 2.5 steals + 1.0 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 55.0%, a three-point shooting percentage of 33.0%, and a free throw percentage of 81.0%. He is the team's first core players on both ends of offense and defense, far surpassing the role of Shin Kyung, Jaylen Green and Van Vreet!
