Landale (personal) is not on the injury report for Monday's game against the Pistons. Landale missed Saturday's win over the Trail Blazers due to a personal problem, but the big man will suit up and be available Monday. That said, he essentially provides depth in the frontcourt, so he's not going to provide a lot of fantasy value even when available.

Rockets Injury Report
Landale (personal) is not on the injury report for Monday's game against the Pistons. Landale missed Saturday's win over the Trail Blazers due to a personal problem, but the big man will suit up and be available Monday. That said, he essentially provides depth in the frontcourt, so he's not going to provide a lot of fantasy value even when available.
Thompson (calf) is questionable for Monday's game against the Pistons, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports. Thompson missed the 125-103 win over the Trail Blazers on Saturday due to left calf tightness, and the questionable tag suggests there's a chance he might miss back-to-back games for the second time since the beginning of January. Tari Eason, Cam Whitmore and Jae'Sean Tate could be in line for bigger roles if Thompson is unable to go.
Brooks totaled 22 points (9-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Saturday's 125-103 victory over Portland. Brooks came alive in the third quarter, joining Jalen Green in a scoring romp that put the game away for the Rockets. Jabari Smith (hand) will be out until March, and Brooks will be called upon to absorb some of the missing output. The projected production boost should put Brooks back on the fantasy radar as a viable waiver wire add, as he's likely available in deeper leagues.
Sengun registered 23 points (10-19 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-5 FT), 15 rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 31 minutes during Saturday's 125-103 win over the Trail Blazers. Although Sengun endured a brief slump a couple of weeks ago, he's hit the double-double milestone in four of his last six games, and came tantalizingly close to the mark in the other two contests. Sengun faced little opposition against the Trail Blazers, who were without Deandre Ayton's (back) services.
Green ended Saturday's 125-103 victory over Portland with 26 points (10-17 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 29 minutes. Green was the primary catalyst of a third-quarter run that Portland was unable to answer, ultimately sealing the victory for the Rockets. Green's production has been rock-solid throughout the month. The last time Green's scoring total has dipped below 20 points was three weeks ago, and he's been on an aggressive tear of production since, averaging 29.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.7 assists over the past nine games.
Tate will start Saturday's game against Portland, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports. The Rockets originally planned to start Jeff Green in Amen Thompson's (calf) place, but coach Ime Udoka pivoted once Deandre Ayton (back) was ruled out. Tate has played a minimal role all season and will be making his first start of the campaign.
Rockets head coach Ime Udoka said Saturday that Smith will not have surgery on his fractured left hand, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports. Smith fractured his left hand on Jan. 3, which raised doubts about his return to the basketball court for the Rockets this season. Although electing not to have surgery on his hand could extend his recovery timeline, he is not expected to miss much more time than the original estimate of 4-to-8 weeks.
Thompson (calf) will not play Saturday against the Trail Blazers, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports. Thompson was a late addition to the injury report and will be held out of Saturday's action. He's been on a tear, averaging 16.0 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.9 steals on 59.5 percent shooting from the field over his last eight appearances. With Thompson sidelined, Tari Eason, Cam Whitmore and Jae'Sean Tate could be more involved Saturday.
