Inactive Sunday Marjanovic (not injury related) is inactive Sunday against Dallas, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Marjanovic is taking a seat so Houston's two-way players can be active. His absence shouldn't impact fantasy hoops.

Rare sighting Tuesday Marjanovic registered five points (1-1 FG, 3-3 FT) across two minutes during Tuesday's 137-114 win over the Wizards.

Impact Marjanovic played two minutes of garbage time in the win, cracking the rotation for just the second time in the past 20 games. While it is always good to see him out on the floor, he holds absolutely no fantasy value, even in the deepest of formats.

Celebrity appearance in loss Marjanovic ended Friday's 122-95 loss to Minnesota with two points (1-3 FG) and three rebounds in four minutes.

Impact Marjanovic cracked the rotation for just the fifth time this season, playing four minutes in garbage time. Despite his novelty factor, Marjanovic is simply incapable of playing a significant role. All things considered, he is probably lucky to even be in the league at this point.

JANUARY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returning to Houston Marjanovic is slated to sign a one-year deal with the Rockets, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Marjanovic will return to Houston after appearing in 31 contests for the Rockets last year, averaging 3.3 points and 1.9 rebounds in 5.5 minutes per game. The veteran big man will compete with Jock Landale for backup minutes behind Alperen Sengun.

Cameo appearance Friday Marjanovic chipped in one rebound across two minutes during Friday's 114-112 win over the Pelicans.

Impact Marjanovic played for the first time in almost two weeks, logging two minutes in the win. Head coach Stephen Silas opted to go with Marjanovic for the final play of the game, utilizing his size to defend the inbounds play. A deflection resulted in the Rockets holding on for a third straight victory. While this is a bit of a feel-good story, there is obviously nothing to see here from a fantasy perspective.

Rejoins Houston Marjanovic re-signed Monday with the Rockets after clearing waivers.

Impact Marjanovic was waived Friday for procedural purposes after the Rockets needed to clear up roster room for their new additions following Thursday's trade deadline, but Houston was always expected to bring back the veteran center once he cleared waivers. The Rockets appear set to stick with Usman Garuba as the primary backup option at center behind starter Alperen Sengun, so Marjanovic doesn't look as though he'll be a factor in head coach Stephen Silas' rotation in most games.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Cameo appearance Thursday Marjanovic totaled four points (2-3 FG), three rebounds and one assist in six minutes during Thursday's 113-95 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Marjanovic made a celebrity cameo in the loss, the first time he has seen action in almost two weeks. Despite his popularity amongst fans, Marjanovic simply can't foot it with the speed of today's NBA. Based on what we have seen thus far this season, there is almost no way he plays more than about eight minutes on any given night. His fantasy value is non-existent.

Six points in four minutes Marjanovic registered six points (3-4 FG), three rebounds and one assist over four minutes during Thursday's 129-114 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Marjanovic logged four garbage time minutes in the loss, basically summing up his current role for the Rockets. Despite his per-minute upside, Marjanovic simply can't hang with the current crop of NBA talent, meaning the majority of his time is spent cheering on from the sideline. In short, his fantasy value is non-existent.

DECEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Seven points in five minutes Marjanovic closed with seven points (3-3 FG, 1-1 FT) across four minutes during Thursday's 118-109 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Marjanovic made a rare appearance in the loss, taking to the court for just the eighth time this season. While his per-minute production can be highly intriguing, he simply isn't built to play a significant role. As this point, there is little chance he becomes fantasy relevant for any length of time, even in deeper formats.

Makes rare appearance Saturday Marjanovic recorded one point (0-1 FG, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across three minutes during Saturday's 129-117 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Marjanovic saw action for just the fourth time this season, bringing his season total to 13 minutes. It is clear he does not fit the Rockets' timetable and is merely making up the numbers. Given he has never been able to maintain anything close to standard league value, managers can continue to ignore him.

NOVEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Barely plays in loss Marjanovic recorded no stats in two minutes during Wednesday's 109-101 loss to the Jazz.

Impact While Marjanovic has played in the Rockets' last three games, he hasn't played over four minutes or scored more than three points. It is hard to see Marjanovic's fantasy value unless there are significant injuries ahead of him.
