Christopher will return to the second unit for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports. Christopher saw his first start of the season Thursday in place of Eric Gordon (knee) but played just 19 minutes and scored seven points. With Gordon back in action Saturday, Christopher will be relegated to his typical bench role.... See More ... See Less

Rockets' Josh Christopher: Slated to make first start
Christopher will enter the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers, Lachard Binkley of TheDreamShake.com reports. Christopher will step into the first unit for the first time this season with Kevin Porter (foot) and Eric Gordon (knee) sidelined Thursday. Christopher has split time between the NBA and the G League this season, and despite the starting spot, he should not be expected to handle a massive workload. In his last seven games, the second-year guard has averaged 5.1 points across 12.2 minutes.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Delivers full line Saturday
Christopher closed Saturday's 113-104 loss to the Timberwolves with 10 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal over 15 minutes. Christopher played at least 15 minutes for just the fourth time all season, delivering a well-rounded performance. Considering Saturday's performance marked just the first time that he's scored in double figures since April of last season, the second-year guard shouldn't warrant much intrigue outside of deeper leagues, even if he's able to retain a spot in the rotation while both Kevin Porter (foot) and Jabari Smith (ankle) are sidelined....

Rockets' Josh Christopher: Recalled to Rockets
The Rockets recalled Christopher from the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the G League on Thursday, Adam Wexler of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports. Christopher will return to the Rockets after a brief stint in the G League. The second-year guard has had a minimal role in the NBA this season, playing just 7.0 minutes per game across 18 contests.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Sent to G League
Christopher was reassigned to the G League on Friday, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports. Christopher has spent most of his time in 2022-23 with the Rockets but was sent down to the G League affiliate briefly last week as well. He hasn't appeared in any of the last three games for Houston, so he may just be heading to the Vipers to knock off some rust, and it seems unlikely his stay will be long.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Back from G League
The Rockets recalled Christopher from the G League's Rio Grande Valley Vipers on Sunday, Lachard Binkley of TheDreamShake.com reports. The 2021 first-round pick will likely dress for the Rockets in Sunday's game against the Bucks, though he may not be included in the rotation if the contest is reasonably competitive. The Rockets recently assigned Christopher to the G League in part because playing time has been hard to come by for him at the NBA level this season.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Assigned to G League
The Rockets assigned Christopher to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the G League on Friday, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports. Christopher has appeared in 18 games for the Rockets this season but is averaging only 7.0 minutes played. Houston doesn't play again until Sunday, so Christopher will likely have a brief stint with the Vipers if the Rockets intend to have him rejoin the club.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Actually available
Christopher (foot) is warming up with the expectation of playing in Thursday's game against the Spurs, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports. Christopher was initially ruled out for the contest but will surprisingly be available to play. He figures to play a depth role in the backcourt and has recorded more than 13 minutes just twice this season.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Won't play Thursday
Christopher (foot) won't be available for Thursday's contest against the Spurs, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports. Christopher will miss his eighth game of the season Thursday, as the guard is dealing with a left foot contusion. The 20-year-old is averaging 7.2 minutes per game this season and has seen his role decrease after a rookie campaign during which he averaged 18.0 minutes. Christopher's absence won't have much of an impact on the Rockets' rotation Thursday against San Antonio.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Game-time call Thursday
Christopher (foot) is listed as questionable and considered a game-time decision for Thursday's contest against the Spurs, Jackson Gatlin of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Christopher is dealing with a left foot contusion and will be a game-time call along with Kevin Porter (knee). Through 17 games this season, Christopher is averaging just 7.2 minutes per contest, but he could be in store for an uptick in playing time if he suits up and Porter doesn't.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Questionable Thursday
Christopher is questionable to play in Thursday's matchup with the Spurs due to a left foot contusion. Christopher is averaging only 7.2 minutes across 17 games this season, so his potential absence shouldn't affect the Rockets' rotation much. Christopher's next chance to play will be Sunday's game against Milwaukee if he's ruled out Thursday.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Available Friday
Christopher (shoulder) is available for Friday's game against the Hawks. Christopher continues to see spot minutes with Houston. In 12 appearances, he's averaged 2.8 points and 1.4 rebounds in 7.8 minutes.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Added to injury report
Christopher is listed as probable for Friday's game against Atlanta with a sore left shoulder. Christopher didn't even play in the Rockets' last game, so it's unclear when or how this issue surfaced. Either way, he'll probably be cleared for Friday's contest, though he's unlikely to see any meaningful minutes.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Team option exercised
The Rockets exercised Christopher's $2.49 million team option for the 2023-24 season Sunday. Christopher has had an inconsistent role early in the season, as he's averaged just 2.6 points in 7.4 minutes per game across five appearances. However, he was one of several Rockets to have their third-year options picked up Sunday.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Fading fast
Christopher closed with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) across four minutes during Monday's 114-108 win over Utah. Christopher has now been essentially cut from the rotation twice in Houston's first four games. During his time on the court, Christopher has compiled 11 points (5-14 FG, 0-6 3Pt) across 36 minutes. The 20-year-old has been usurped by superior shooters in Daishen Nix and Garrison Mathews.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Ends preseason with solid effort
Christopher ended with 11 points (5-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, two steals and one assist in 23 minutes during Friday's victory over Indiana. Christopher was solid off the bench yet again and should enter the season with a regular rotation spot. His playing time could fluctuate slightly but given what we saw from him during his rookie campaign, it does appear that the coaching staff views him as a meaningful piece. While he is certainly not on the fantasy radar in standard leagues, he is a name to watch, especially if his role increases at some point down the stretch.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Scores 15 in huge win
Christopher posted 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and a steal across 21 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 134-96 win over the Spurs. Christopher was one of five Houston players that scored in double digits in this game, and the role he fulfilled against the Spurs should be the same he'll have during the regular season -- a steady scoring threat off the bench. The second-year guard, who seems to be fully healthy after battling a hip injury before training camp, averaged 7.9 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 18.0 minutes per game as a rookie....

Rockets' Josh Christopher: Good to go for training camp
Christopher (hip) is healthy and available for training camp, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports. Christopher picked up a hip injury during Summer League play, but as expected, he'll be good to go for training camp. As a rookie, the 6-foot-3 guard averaged 7.9 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 18.0 minutes per game and figures to garner a similar role during the 2022-23 campaign.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Sidelined with sore hip
The Rockets announced Wednesday that Christopher will be sidelined for the remainder of Las Vegas Summer League play due to a sore right hip, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports. The second-year guard appeared in three games for the Rockets during the summer slate, averaging 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.7 blocks across 26.8 minutes per contest. Christopher was already in good shape to enter the upcoming season as a rotation player for the Rockets, so his absence for the team's remaining summer schedule shouldn't affect his outlook heading into training camp.... See More ... See Less -
Rockets' Josh Christopher: Scores game-high 22
Christopher finished Thursday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Magic with 22 points (7-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), one rebound, one assist and three blocks in 25 minutes. As a second-year player, Christopher was noticeably confident and clearly operating as the No. 1 creator for the Rockets whenever he was on the floor. While he didn't do much as a distributor, Christopher worked his way to the line eight times while finishing as a plus-four in a game Houston lost by 14 points. The 2021 first-round pick appeared in 74 games as a rookie, averaging 7.9 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists while shooting 44.8 percent from the field. He hit only 29.6 percent of his threes, however, so the hope is that he can improve upon that figure. If the Rockets can move Eric Gordon before the start of the 2022-23 season, Christopher would be in position to step into a more prominent role.... See More ... See Less

Alykhan Bijani@Rockets_Insider7D agoYes, Josh Christopher had a terrific dunk off a nice cut, but pay attention to Jalen Green here. This split-cut action helps illustrates what we already know: Green is effective off-ball. Not just as a scorer with his movement, but also as a screener. https://t.co/1hnt2YeDBX
