Josh Okogie - Removed from rotation Okogie (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Thursday in the Rockets' 105-101 loss to the Hornets.

Impact For the second time in three games, head coach Ime Udoka dropped the struggling Okogie from his nine-man rotation and instead opted to go with Jae'Sean Tate for the final spot. The two DNPs were the first of the season for Okogie, who has fallen out of favor after shooting just 39.7 percent from the field and 31.8 percent from three-point range since the calendar flipped to 2026.

Dorian Finney-Smith - Fares well in win Finney-Smith finished Thursday's 105-101 win over the Hornets with eight points (3-7 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 23 minutes.

Impact Houston's final contest prior to the All-Star break was the second half of a back-to-back, and Finney-Smith sat out that contest for injury maintenance. The Rockets are pretty thin in the frontcourt, and there is a path for Finney-Smith to carve out a larger role.

Alperen Sengun - Struggles from field Sengun accumulated 13 points (6-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and three steals over 32 minutes during Thursday's 105-101 victory over the Hornets.

Impact Sengun had a relatively quiet night offensively, but he made up for it on the other end -- this was his eighth game of the campaign with at least three steals. Through 47 games, Sengun is on pace to post fifth-round value in nine-category formats on a per-game basis with 20.5 points, 9.2 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks.

Reed Sheppard - Adds 13 points off bench Sheppard amassed 13 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 24 minutes during Thursday's 105-101 win over Charlotte.

Impact Sheppard was the only bench player to finish the night in double figures, though he struggled to find the bottom of the net from beyond the arc. He looked like he was turning the corner after going 9-for-16 from three in his last two games before the All-Star break, but he was unable to build off his recent success. Despite his shooting woes, Sheppard has seen a slight uptick in playing time lately, averaging 27.8 minutes per game over his last four outings after logging 24.5 minutes per matchup in his first 50 appearances of the campaign.

Amen Thompson - Tallies four swipes Thompson notched nine points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals in 37 minutes during Thursday's 105-101 victory over the Hornets.

Impact Thompson had a below-average night offensively, but he made up for it with his effort on the opposite end. He recorded four steals for the second time in his last nine games and registered a block for the third time in four appearances. Thompson is averaging 11.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.6 steals over his last five games.

Kevin Durant - Drops 35 points in victory Durant accumulated 35 points (14-20 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 36 minutes during Thursday's 105-101 victory over Charlotte.

Impact Durant posted an impressive shooting performance and pulled his weight on the defensive end by accounting for three of the team's eight blocks. Only two other starters scored in double figures, so it was Durant who carried the offense to a win. The 37-year-old has also been more involved on the boards lately by grabbing eight rebounds in back-to-back showings.
