Reed Sheppard - Chips in full stat line Sheppard ended Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers with 17 points (6-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 25 minutes.
Impact With Fred VanVleet (knee) sidelined, Sheppard is locking down a big role in the backcourt during the first part of the season. The second-year guard has averaged 10.8 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.5 steals in 23.7 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, but he's shooting only 36.5 percent from downtown during this stretch.

Jabari Smith Jr. - Tallies another double-double Smith notched 16 points (6-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and 12 rebounds over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Smith turned in his third consecutive double-double Wednesday. The fourth-year big man has averaged 14.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.0 steals in 35.4 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, shooting 41.8 percent from deep.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Amen Thompson - Another solid effort Thompson amassed 12 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal across 41 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Thompson continues to enjoy a productive third season with the Rockets. The versatile forward has averaged 14.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.7 steals in 37.2 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, shooting 45.7 percent from the floor.

Josh Okogie - Comes up empty in loss Okogie recorded no counting stats in 10 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Okogie did his best Tony Snell impersonation, failing to record a stat despite playing 10 minutes. While he has been able to remain in the rotation, Okogie rarely contributes in the box score. In 52 games this season, he has averaged just 5.2 points and 0.9 steals in 19.6 minutes per game.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Struggles from floor in loss Eason closed Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers with 13 points (4-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and three assists over 34 minutes.
Impact Eason shot the ball poorly yet again, although the fact that he played 34 minutes on the second night of a back-to-back has to be the real talking point. Managers should now feel comfortable deploying him on a nightly basis, assuming he suffers no setbacks moving forward. The hope is that his production can increase, having averaged just 13.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.5 three-pointers in six games over the past two weeks.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Clint Capela - Blocks four shots in loss Capela posted three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and four blocks across 16 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Capela salvaged what was another poor performance by matching his season-high with four blocks. Despite assuming the primary backup role behind Alperen Sengun, Capela's time as a fantasy-relevant player has certainly come and gone. At best, managers can utilize him for streaming purposes, if and when blocks are at the top of the priority list.

Impact Sengun was being listed as probable, and now we have official confirmation that he'll be out there for Wednesday's rematch. The All-Star center is averaging 20.8 points, 9.4 rebounds, 6.3 assists 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks per game this season.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Available to play Eason (leg) will play Wednesday against the Clippers.
Impact Wednesday's game will mark the first time this season that Eason will have appeared in both matches of a back-to-back set, which is an encouraging sign moving forward. Eason was limited to just six points on 2-for-10 shooting his last time out, so he'll be looking to bounce back in Wednesday's rematch with the Clippers.

Impact As expected, Finney-Smith will be held out for rest on the second leg of this back-to-back set. With Tari Eason (rest) questionable, Josh Okogie could see a sizable role Wednesday.
3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Iffy for Wednesday Eason is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to injury maintenance.
Impact A maintenance day is on the table for Eason for the second leg of this back-to-back set. If Eason is held out, the Rockets will need players such as Josh Okogie and Jae'Sean Tate to step up on the wings.
3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Alperen Sengun - Probable for Wednesday Sengun is probable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers with a lower leg contusion.
Impact Sengun is expected to power through this mild injury for the second leg of this back-to-back set. He logged 35 minutes Tuesday against the Clippers and finished with 22 points, seven rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes.
