00:00Welcome to this exciting story, Patience is a Virtue. This phrase is something many of

00:05us have encountered throughout our lives. However, in the fast-paced environment of

00:09today, the desire for instant gratification often overshadows the value of patience.

00:15For fans of the Phoenix Suns, the anticipation surrounding the debut of Jalen Green, who

00:19was a key figure in the trade that brought Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets earlier

00:23this summer, was particularly intense. Although Green had been one of only five players in

00:28the NBA to participate in every game over the last two seasons, he had yet to step onto the court in

00:33a Suns uniform, due to a hamstring injury that kept him from playing in both the preseason and the

00:38regular season, that all changed on Thursday night, and it can be said that Green's long-awaited debut

00:44was certainly worth the anticipation. Standing at 6'4", the guard started the game, and quickly

00:50appeared comfortable, within the Suns' offensive scheme, contributing an impressive 29 points in

00:56just under 23 minutes. During the Suns' 115,102 victory against the LA Clippers, his first points

01:03came a little over two minutes into the game. When he skillfully drove into the lane, executing a

01:09smooth scoop shot, the ball sailed over the extended arm of Clippers center Ivica Zubak, resulting in an

01:15impressive score. This was just the beginning of a remarkable performance. He successfully made six

01:21three-pointers, two mid-range jump shots, and another layup. His final score occurred with 9.22

01:28remaining in the fourth quarter. During a fast-break situation for the Suns, Green passed the ball to

01:33Grayson Allen during a two-on-one play. While Green continued toward the basket, Allen opted to take a

01:39three-point shot. Green seemed to signal with his hands, indicating he wanted a lob for a dunk.

01:44However, Allen's shot missed, but Ryan Dunn quickly retrieved the ball under the basket and made a

01:50clever pass to Green, who had moved to the corner for an open three-pointer. Green made the shot,

01:55increasing the Suns' lead to 22 points, prompting LA coach Ty Lue to call a timeout. As Green ran toward

02:02the south basket, he gestured to the fans and pulled at his jersey to highlight the Suns' logo on his chest,

02:08which the crowd enthusiastically responded to. With 29 points, Green recorded the second-highest

02:13scoring debut for a Suns player in the team's history, the only player who scored more in their

02:18debut. Charles Barkley, who scored 37 points against the Clippers in the same arena nearly 33 years ago.

02:25On this particular night, Green rewarded the patience of Suns fans, who have endured a long

02:30period of unmet expectations and lackluster performance. For dedicated supporters of the team,

02:36patience has become essential in the present. Cherish that sense of fulfillment, as demonstrated on

02:41Thursday, because it can be incredibly gratifying when it finally pays off. Wasn't that performance

02:47worth the wait?
