Latest Rockets News
Alperen Sengun : Nears double-double in win
Sengun recorded 23 points (10-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one block over 34 minutes during Thursday's 133-113 victory over New Orleans. Sengun stuffed the stat sheet in an extremely efficient performance Thursday, during which he logged his 13th 20-plus-point outing of the season. The star big man continues to produce monster numbers, and he is on pace to average a double-double this year. Over his last five outings, Sengun has averaged 17.8 points, 9.8 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.4 steals across 32.8 minutes per contest.
Dillon Brooks : Delivers in victory Thursday
Brooks had 26 points (10-16 FG, 6-10 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Thursday's 133-113 victory over the Pelicans. Brooks delivered an efficient performance while logging his third 20-plus-point outing of the season. The 28-year-old has produced a solid season thus far, and he is on pace to shoot a career-high 38.9 percent from beyond the arc. Over his last five appearances, Brooks has averaged 16.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals across 35.6 minutes per contest.
Jalen Green : Stellar outing in victory Thursday
Green contributed 34 points (13-22 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Thursday's 133-113 win over the Pelicans. Green logged his fourth 30-plus-point outing while leading the Rockets to victory with a game-high 34 points. The 22-year-old has delivered some stellar performances this season, though consistency has been an issue for him thus far. Over his last five outings, Green has averaged 20.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.8 steals while shooting only 25.6 percent from three-point range across 33.8 minutes per contest.
Tari Eason : Out vs. Pelicans
Eason (lower leg) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against New Orleans. Eason is being shut down Thursday for injury management reasons. His next chance to suit up will arrive Sunday in Toronto.
Steven Adams : Good to go Thursday
Adams (ankle) is listed as available for Thursday's game against the Pelicans. Adams sprained his left ankle during Saturday's loss to the Thunder, though he'll return to action Thursday without missing a contest. The big man's presence shouldn't affect any fantasy decisions, as he has averaged 3.2 points and 4.6 rebounds across only 10.0 minutes per game in his last five appearances.
Alperen Sengun : Gets green light
Sengun (knee) will play Thursday against the Pelicans. Sengun was considered questionable due to left knee soreness, but the issue won't force him to miss out on Thursday's action. He's turned in three straight double-doubles heading into his team's clash with New Orleans.
Fred VanVleet : Absent from injury report
VanVleet (undisclosed) isn't listed on the Rockets' injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Pelicans. VanVleet was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice for unknown reasons, but he'll be available to play New Orleans. In 24 appearances this season, VanVleet is averaging 15.3 points, 6.0 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals across 35.5 minutes.
Steven Adams : Labeled questionable
Adams (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports. Adams exited Saturday's game after suffering a sprained left ankle, and the issue could keep him sidelined Thursday. With Alperen Sengun (knee) also questionable, Jock Landale and Jeff Green could see more action at the center spot.
