Houston Rockets News and Rumors - NBA

Tari Eason - Continues trending down Eason finished with two points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 20 minutes during Sunday's 145-120 loss to San Antonio.

Impact That's now four games in a row in single-digit scoring for Eason, who played fewer minutes than Reed Sheppard on Sunday. Fantasy managers should remain patient with Eason while he continues to start, but he has just averaged 6.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.6 minutes per tilt in his last seven games while shooting a poor 35.2 percent from the floor.

Alperen Sengun - Scores 16 in blowout loss Sengun finished with 16 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes during Sunday's 145-120 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Sengun has been a bit inconsistent with his scoring numbers of late and has failed to reach the 20-point mark in four of his last six appearances. Over that stretch, the skilled big man is still averaging 20.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and a combined 1.2 steals-plus-blocks per game, so Sengun remains a strong fantasy option even if his numbers have been trending slightly down of late.

Kevin Durant - Scores 23 in loss to SAS Durant had 23 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two blocks over 33 minutes during Sunday's 145-120 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Durant was much more careful with the rock after committing eight turnovers in the win over the Trail Blazers on Friday, and even though the Rockets lost by 25 points, Durant still posted a decent fantasy line. This was his seventh straight game with at least 20 points, and he's hit this line in all but two of his 15 appearances since the beginning of February. Despite being 37 years old, Durant isn't showing any signs of slowing down. He's averaging 26.1 points per game this season and 27.2 ppg since the All-Star break.

Amen Thompson - Stuffs stat sheet in blowout loss Thompson produced 23 points (8-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Sunday's 145-120 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Thompson co-led the Rockets in scoring in this one alongside Kevin Durant, but he also made his presence felt in other categories as well. Thompson has reached the 20-point mark in four of his last five outings, and in five of his nine appearances since the All-Star break, even though he's not known for his scoring prowess alone. Thompson is averaging a solid line of 17.7 points, 8.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 2.2 steals and 0.6 blocks per game since the All-Star break.

Reed Sheppard - Headed to bench Sheppard will come off the bench for Sunday's game in San Antonio, Varun Shankar of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Jabari Smith (ankle) is back and starting, so Sheppard will shift back to a reserve role. As a member of the second unit this season, Reed owns averages of 13.0 points, 2.9 assists, 2.6 triples and 1.3 steals per contest.

Jabari Smith Jr. - Off injury report Smith (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Smith did not play in the back leg of the Rockets' back-to-back set against the Trail Blazers on Friday due to a right ankle sprain. The 2022 first-rounder isn't listed on the injury report, which means Reed Sheppard will likely revert to a bench role for Sunday's contest.

Reed Sheppard - Thrives in starting role Friday Sheppard notched 17 points (5-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists, three blocks and one steal over 36 minutes during Friday's 106-99 victory over Portland.

Impact With Jabari Smith (ankle) sidelined for the second leg of a back-to-back, Sheppard moved back into the starting lineup and continued his recent tear. While his efficiency from the floor was modest, he provided elite defensive stats and solid playmaking as a starter. The second-year guard has been playing at an incredibly high level lately, averaging 21.3 points, 5.5 assists, and 4.8 triples over his last six outings. While his role often fluctuates based on Smith's availability, Sheppard has logged 35-plus minutes in each of his last four games and appears to have turned a corner in his development.

Kevin Durant - Coughs up eight turnovers Durant logged 20 points (8-18 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one block over 39 minutes during the Rockets' 106-99 win over the Trail Blazers on Friday.

Impact Durant was one of three Rockets players to score at least 20 points in Friday's game. However, the veteran forward had trouble taking care of the ball and tied a season high with eight turnovers. Since the All-Star break, Durant has averaged 27.7 points on 52.7 percent shooting along with 6.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 2.4 threes, 1.0 blocks and 0.9 steals over 36.8 minutes per game.

Alperen Sengun - Big second half in Friday's win Sengun logged 28 points (11-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block over 26 minutes during the Rockets' 106-99 win over the Trail Blazers on Friday.

Impact Sengun dropped 15 of his game-high 28 points in the second half of Friday's game. It could have been a larger performance for the fifth-year center, but his playing time was limited as he battled through foul trouble. Sengun has averaged 19.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 steals over 33.0 minutes per game since the All-Star break.

Amen Thompson - All-around effort in Friday's win Thompson posted 26 points (11-12 FG, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, two steals and one block over 39 minutes during the Rockets' 106-99 win over the Trail Blazers on Frida...

Impact Thompson scored 16 of his 26 points in the second half and missed just one shot from the field. He finished as the Rockets' assists leader and finished second on the team in rebounds and points behind Kevin Durant (eight boards) and Alperen Sengun (28 points), respectively. Thompson was able to play in both games of the Rockets' back-to-back set, which is a good sign seeing as he was listed as questionable for both of those contests due to a right ankle sprain. He has averaged 21.5 points, 10.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.3 steals over 38.2 minutes per game over his last four outings.
