Josh Okogie: Breaking News

Just misses double-double in start

Okogie closed Thursday's 113-102 win over the 76ers with nine points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes. Making his first start since Feb. 5, Okogie just missed recording his second double-double of the season, and the sixth of his career. The 27-year-old wing has filled a more consistent role in the Rockets' rotation in April, averaging 13.6 minutes over the last five games while supplying 4.4 points, 3.4 boards, 1.0 assists and 0.6 steals.

Entering starting lineup

Okogie is starting Thursday's game against the 76ers, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports. Okogie will draw a rare start Thursday with the Rockets electing to shake up the first unit. Reed Sheppard will shift to a bench role as a result of the lineup change.

Phased out of rotation

Okogie (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Friday in the Rockets' 119-109 win over the Grizzlies. After playing single-digit minutes in four of the Rockets' previous five contests, Okogie finally dropped out of the rotation entirely Friday along with Dorian Finney-Smith while head coach Ime Udoka went with Tari Eason and Jae'Sean Tate as the team's reserve options at forward. Okogie's declining role has come while the 27-year-old has shot just 40 percent from the field since the calendar flipped to 2026.
