Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Cleared to face Clippers
Sengun (illness) isn't on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Clippers.
Sengun missed back-to-back games with an illness, but after returning to practice Tuesday, he's been given the green light to face the Clippers. The 23-year-old big man had scored 25 or more points in three straight games before falling ill. He averaged 28.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.7 blocks across 32 minutes during that stretch.

Rockets' Steven Adams: Removed from injury report
Adams (ankle) is off the injury report for Thursday's game against the Clippers.
Adams sat out Saturday's game against Dallas due to right ankle tendinopathy, but his absence from the injury report means he's set to be available Thursday. Over his last six games, the veteran center has averaged 7.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.8 blocks in 22.0 minutes per contest.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Goes through practice
Sengun (illness) was back at practice Tuesday, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Sengun missed the past two games for Houston, but it appears he's trending towards a return. The Rockets don't play again until Thursday, giving him another 48 hours to get back to 100 percent.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Muted performance in loss
Sheppard finished with 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 20 minutes during Saturday's 122-109 loss to the Mavericks.
Sheppard's fantasy appeal continues to leave a lot to be desired. Considering Alperen Sengun (illness) was out for a second straight game, Sheppard's fantasy managers were likely expecting much more. Over his last four outings, Sheppard is averaging 9.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 23.1 minutes per contest.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Plays well again in loss
Holiday closed with 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one block and one steal over 27 minutes during Saturday's 122-109 loss to Dallas.
Holiday continues to trend up for the Rockets and is seemingly pulling ahead of Reed Sheppard in the backcourt, at least in terms of minutes. Over his last four games, Holiday is seeing 26.4 minutes per game compared to 23.1 for Sheppard. In that span, Holiday is averaging 11.5 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.3 three-pointers.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Notches 22 points in loss
Smith accumulated 22 points (10-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 41 minutes during Saturday's 122-109 loss to Dallas.
Smith picked up some offensive usage with Alperen Sengun (illness) sidelined for a second straight game, combining with Kevin Durant for a total of 49 points. Smith is currently on pace for ninth-round value in nine-category formats on a per-game basis with regular-season averages of 15.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.8 blocks and 2.0 three-pointers across 20 appearances.

Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Chips in five points in defeat
Tate registered five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 17 minutes during Saturday's 122-109 loss to Dallas.
With Alperen Sengun (illness) joining Tari Eason (oblique) and Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) on the sidelines for a second consecutive game, Tate saw increased run and dished out a season-high three assists. The 30-year-old forward has appeared in six consecutive contests, during which he has averaged 5.5 points and 2.7 rebounds while shooting 61.9 percent from the field in 12.5 minutes per game.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Won't suit up Saturday
Sengun (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Dallas, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.
Sengun will miss his second consecutive contest due to an illness, and his next opportunity to play will come Thursday against the Clippers. With the star big man and Steven Adams (ankle) both sidelined, Clint Capela will start, while Jeff Green and Jae'Sean Tate are also candidates for increased playing time.

Rockets' Clint Capela: Draws start Saturday
Capela will start Saturday's game against the Mavericks, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.
Alperen Sengun is out with an illness, while Steven Adams is getting the night off for maintenance. Capela is a strong streaming option for fantasy managers in need of rebounds, blocks and field-goal percentage against the Mavericks.

Rockets' Steven Adams: Ruled out Saturday
Adams is out for Saturday's game in Dallas due to right ankle tendinopathy.
Alperen Sengun (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game, so Clint Capela could be headed for a spot start, while Jeff Green could see meaningful minutes in the rotation. Adams' next chance to play will come Thursday against the Clippers.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Doubtful Saturday
Sengun (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game in Dallas.
Steven Adams, who started Friday's game, has already been ruled out Saturday with an ankle injury, so Clint Capela could potentially be looking at major minutes and a starting role versus the Mavericks. Check back for official confirmation on Sengun's status closer to tipoff.

Rockets' Steven Adams: Grabs eight boards in start
Adams finished with four points (2-4 FG), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 117-98 win over Phoenix.
Adams moved into the starting lineup for the fifth time this season, replacing Alperen Sengun, who was ruled out due to illness. As usual, Adams filled in admirably, including recording a season-high four combined steals and blocks. Sengun is unlikely to miss a significant amount of time, meaning Adams should be viewed as nothing more than a streaming option for those needing rebounds.

Rockets' Jeff Green: Uncle Jeff sighting
Green accumulated zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in eight minutes during Friday's 117-98 win over the Suns.
Green made a rare appearance, moving into the rotation for just the ninth time this season, all of which have come during garbage time. Now firmly in the twilight of his career, Green serves as a positive locker room presence and nothing more. Don't expect to see him on the floor any time a game is even moderately close.

Rockets' Amen Thompson: Season-high 31 points
Thompson totaled 31 points (12-17 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 32 minutes during Friday's 117-98 victory over the Suns.
Thompson continued his recent scoring surge, tallying a season-high 31 points, his third straight game with at least 20 points. After a somewhat underwhelming start to the season, Thompson has slowly turned things around. In 14 appearances over the past month, he has averaged 18.3 points, 7.6 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.6 blocks in 36.9 minutes per contest, which is good enough for top 50 value in standard leagues.

Rockets' Kevin Durant: Crosses 31K-point plateau in win
Durant posted 28 points (11-17 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, three steals and one block over 32 minutes during Friday's 117-98 win over the Suns.
Durant reached a big career milestone Friday night, as he surpassed 31,000 career points, something only eight other NBA players have accomplished. The superstar has notched 20-plus points in four straight games, dishing out eight dimes in each of his last two. He also tied his season-high mark in steals Friday.
