Just misses double-double in win Thompson logged 13 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt), nine rebounds, four assists and one block in 33 minutes during Saturday's 117-100 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact The third-year guard likely would have had his sixth double-double of the season in a more competitive contest, but the Rockets were up by 27 heading into the fourth quarter and Thompson called it a night midway through the final frame. The fourth overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft has scored in double digits in eight straight games, averaging 18.6 points, 8.1 boards, 5.8 assists and 1.3 steals over that stretch while shooting 59.4 percent from the floor.

Top scorer in Christmas Day win Thompson notched 26 points (12-19 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Thursday's 119-96 win over the Lakers.

Impact Thompson led all scorers in the Rockets' Christmas Day win, knocking down at least 12 field goals for the third time this season. The 22-year-old has taken a noticeable step forward offensively in his third campaign, pairing increased scoring with his versatile skill set while averaging 18.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1.5 steals over his previous six games entering Thursday. Though a reliable three-point shot still hasn't developed, Thompson has clearly emerged as a physical, all-around threat.

Sniffs double-double in loss Thompson provided 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 128-108 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Thompson eventually took a seat in the fourth quarter once the game was out of hand, but the lopsided margin denied him one last rebound to hit a double-double. Thompson managed an accurate night of shooting despite an overall lack of backcourt success against the Clippers, especially on defense, where they had no luck defending James Harden.

DECEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sniffs triple-double in OT loss Thompson amassed 18 points (7-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and three steals in 45 minutes during Sunday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Kings.

Impact Thompson was very close to triple-double territory in the loss, falling a rebound and two assists short of the milestone. Thompson has had perfect attendance this season, and although he's averaging only 17.5 points per game, he's been a very consistent multi-category producer with uncapped upside when the game is flowing in his direction.

DECEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Notches 23 points Thompson totaled 23 points (11-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 41 minutes during Thursday's 133-128 overtime loss to New Orleans.

Impact Thompson eclipsed 20 points for the ninth time this season, and for the fifth time in his last seven outings. During that stretch, Thompson has produced averages of 19.7 points, 8.1 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.7 blocks and 3.1 turnovers in 37.8 minutes per contest.

DECEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Big workload in OT loss Monday Thompson registered 14 points (5-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds and six assists in 44 minutes during Monday's 128-125 overtime loss to the Nuggets.

Impact The 44 minutes were a season high for Thompson, helping him record his fifth double-double of 2025-26, but the Rockets have been leaning heavily on the third-year guard of late. Thompson's played at least 40 minutes in four of the last 11 games, averaging 37.5 minutes over that stretch while producing 17.5 points, 8.7 boards, 5.4 assists and 1.4 steals.

DECEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Reaches 20-point mark again Thompson closed with 20 points (8-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Thompson missed all three of his three-point attempts, but he went 8-for-9 in two-point tries to reach the 20-point mark for the fourth time over his last five outings. He did more than just score, though, as Thompson also ended just one rebound and two assists away from a triple-double. The third-year guard has been a stat-stuffing machine in 2025-26. He's averaging 17.8 points, 8.4 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.5 steals per game over his last 10 appearances.

Impact 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, good enough for top 50 value in standard leagues.

Impact After a rough, two-game stretch to close out November, Thompson has been hot coming into December, scoring at least 20 points in back-to-back games while racking up the defensive stats.

Reaches 20-point threshold Thompson provided 23 points (8-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-9 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 37 minutes during Monday's 133-125 loss to the Jazz.

Impact Thompson bounced back from a dud Sunday against the Jazz in which he was held to five points on 2-for-8 from the field. He was far more aggressive on the offensive end Monday, and while he was unable to connect from deep, he still reached the 20-point threshold. Thompson has also been productive on the boards of late, averaging 9.0 rebounds over his last seven appearances.

DECEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Double-double in Wednesday's win Thompson contributed 10 points (4-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 104-100 victory over Golden State.

Impact The 14 boards were a season high for Thompson, and the double-double was his third in 16 games. The third-year guard has scored in double digits in every contest so far in 2025-26, averaging 17.4 points, 6.9 boards, 5.1 assists and 1.4 steals in 36.6 minutes. Thompson's long-distance shooting remains the weak link in his skill set, however -- he's shooting just 22.2 percent (8-for-36) from beyond the arc.

Impact The third-year guard led the Rockets in scoring on the night while tying his season high in points and assists. Thompson has scored in double digits in every game to begin the 2025-26 campaign, averaging 17.9 points, 6.4 boards, 5.2 assists and 1.5 steals. With Kevin Durant (personal) set to miss a second straight game Wednesday against Golden State, Thompson figures to see elevated usage once again.

Tallies five steals in win Thompson produced 12 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt), nine rebounds, six assists and five steals in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 114-104 victory over the Cavaliers.

Impact Thompson fell one rebound shy of a second straight double-double while also leading the Rockets with five steals, a new season best. The 22-year-old has enjoyed a solid start to the 2025-26 season, scoring in double figures in all 13 games while contributing in nearly every category most nights.
