Questionable vs. Lakers Sengun (groin) is questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the Lakers.

Impact A strained left groin kept Sengun out of Monday's upset victory over the Celtics, which was the center's first absence since Jan. 28. Tari Eason would presumably draw another start if Sengun is sidelined Wednesday.

Ruled out for Monday Sengun (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Celtics, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Sengun was initially being listed as probable for Monday's game, but after experiencing some soreness in his groin while going through his pregame routine, the Houston medical staff decided to err on the side of caution and hold him out. Expect more minutes for Kenyon Martin Jr. and Usman Garuba Monday evening.

Probable Monday Sengun is probable for Monday's game against Boston due to a left groin strain.

Impact Sengun has posted double-doubles in four of his last eight appearances and has averaged 13.3 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists in 29.1 minutes per game during that time. Although he's dealing with a groin issue, it appears likely that he'll be able to suit up against the Celtics.

Extends double-double streak Sengun ended with 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds and two assists in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 118-96 loss to the Nets.

Impact Sengun has now recorded three straight double-doubles and four across his last six outings, as he continues to prove he's a strong fantasy asset despite the Rockets struggling to stay competitive. The second-year big man is averaging 12.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 0.8 steals since the start of February (15 games).

Posts another double-double Sengun racked up 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 27 minutes during Sunday's 142-110 victory over the Spurs.

Impact Sengun delivered his third double-double over his last five games, but he also contributed in other categories en route to a solid all-around outing. One of the most versatile big men in fantasy, Sengun is averaging 12.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.5 blocks-plus steals since the start of February (14 games).

Impact Sengun was active on both ends of the court Saturday and posted his third double-double in the last six games. Even though the second-year big man has not looked as dominant as he had looked in the opening stages of the season, he remains a strong fantasy asset thanks to his well-rounded stat profile. He's averaging 12.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks per game across his last 10 outings.

Strong production in loss Sengun supplied 17 points (8-16 FG, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds and five assists across 25 minutes during Sunday's 131-114 loss to Portland.

Impact Sengun posted his first double-double since Feb. 1 and dished out at least five assists for a second straight game. It was a nice bounce-back performance for the talented big man, who came into the contest having made six of his last 22 field-goal attempts and totaled just 13 points over his last two contests. Despite the shaky two-game stretch, Sengun has still been a solid fantasy asset in February, posting 12.8 points, 8.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.2 steals-plus-blocks in 28.7 minutes over 10 appearances.

Struggles from field Wednesday Sengun closed with eight points (4-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 10 rebounds and two assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 133-96 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Sengun had a rough performance Wednesday and couldn't fill the stat sheet as he usually does. The big man ended up with more field goal attempts (12) than points scored (eight), though the 10 rebounds did salvage some value. Sengun is averaging 13.3 points, 7.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game across eight February games entering the All-Star break.

Impact Sengun struggled from the field and saved his scoring numbers thanks to his efficiency from the charity stripe, but he still posted a solid fantasy line with multiple assists and just two boards shy of another double-double. One of the most versatile big men in the league, Sengun is averaging 14.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 5.0 assists and a combined 1.6 steals/blocks per game across six February appearances.

One rebound shy of triple-double Sengun amassed 18 points (7-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, 11 assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 130-128 loss to the Kings.

He entered the break with nine points on 4-of-7 shooting from the field to go along with seven dimes and six boards, three of which came on the offensive end. The center chipped in another nine points and three assists in the second half, though he added just one more rebound to fall one board shy of a triple-double. His 11 assists on the evening marked a team and season high and he's now scored at least 15 points in nine of his last 12 games.
