Alperen Sengun News, Rumors, Updates - Houston Rockets

Questionable Thursday Sengun is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Lakers due to left calf tightness.

Impact Sengun is at risk of missing the Rockets' game on Christmas Day due to a calf injury. If the standout center were to miss the contest, Steven Adams, Clint Capela and Jabari Smith would handle most of the center duties. In his last six games, Sengun is averaging 23.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.2 blocks across 35.5 minutes.

Records double-double in loss Sengun recorded 19 points (9-16 FG, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 128-108 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Sengun's frontcourt work was the only element where Houston held an advantage during the loss, as the big man took advantage of the Clippers' injury woes under the basket. Sengun now has 14 double-doubles out of 25 games played, which puts him in a tie for eighth in the league alongside Luka Doncic.

Paces team with 28 points Sengun ended with 28 points (12-17 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 41 minutes during Sunday's 125-124 overtime loss to Sacramento.

Impact Although Sengun finished with an excellent scoring total, he lost the rebound race under the basket to Maxime Raynaud and relied on Kevin Durant to pick up the slack off the glass. Sunday marked Sengun's second 28-point total over the past three games, and aside from a hiccup against the Nuggets, he's played extremely well after his two-game absence. Over five games, Sengun has averaged 23.8 points, 9.6 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.2 blocked shots.
