OCTOBER 26, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Alperen Sengün - Another double-double Friday Sengun amassed 16 points (5-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 128-108 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Sengun has logged double-doubles in each of the first two games of the regular-season, and he combined with Jabari Smith for 31 of Houston's 41 rebounds Friday. Sengun's ability to impact the game in various ways earned him a five-year, $185 million extension Monday, and early on, it appears that contract for the 2021 first-round pick could be a bargain for the Rockets. Sengun will be in for a touch challenge against Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs on Saturday.

Dillon Brooks - Scores 18 points vs. Memphis Brooks finished with 18 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds and two steals across 31 minutes during Friday's 128-108 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Brooks was held out of the regular-season opener Wednesday due to pain in his right knee, but the 28-year-old was able to make his 2024-25 debut Friday and finished with the second-most points on the Rockets behind Jalen Green (22). Despite the knee pain, Brooks managed to log 31 minutes, though it remains to be seen whether he'll log that same amount of playing time on the second leg of a back-to-back against the Spurs on Saturday.
OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jabari Smith Jr. - Grabs 16 boards against Memphis Smith supplied 14 points (5-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 16 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 35 minutes during Friday's 128-108 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Smith was the game's leading rebounder Friday, and it was his first double-double since March 19 during the 2023-24 regular season. Smith and Alperen Sengun combined for 31 of the Rockets' 41 rebounds, 11 of which came on the offensive side of the floor. It was a nice bounce-back effort from his eight-point performance Wednesday, and Smith will look to build off his efforts against the Spurs on Saturday.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • YOUTUBE
Cam Whitmore - Available for Friday Whitmore (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.
Impact Whitmore was considered probably earlier Friday, so it's not a surprise to see him available for this matchup. The second-year forward will come off the bench just like he did in the season opener Wednesday, when he posted four points in eight minutes.
OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dillon Brooks - Gets green light vs. Memphis Brooks (knee) is available and will play in Friday's game against the Grizzlies.
Impact Brooks is dealing with right anterior knee pain, and although he was always considered likely to suit up Friday based on the probable tag, now there's confirmation that he'll be available. It's uncertain whether the veteran forward will operate under a minutes restriction against his former team, and it's worth noting he logged 31 minutes in the season-opening loss to the Hornets on Wednesday, tallying two points and three rebounds.

OCTOBER 25, 2024 • Associated Press
Cam Whitmore - Likely to play Friday Whitmore (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Grizzlies, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
Impact Whitmore is dealing with left knee pain, though he will likely suit up for a second consecutive game. The 20-year-old joins Dillon Brooks (knee) on the report as probable, and if either run on a minutes restriction, Amen Thompson will likely see extra playing time.
OCTOBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dillon Brooks - Listed probable for Friday Brooks (knee) is probable for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
Impact Brooks is dealing with right anterior knee pain, though he is likely to suit up for a second straight matchup. It is unclear whether the 28-year-old will operate under a minutes restriction, though if he does it could open up more playing time for Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore (knee).
OCTOBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Steven Adams - Won't play Friday Adams won't play in Friday's matchup against the Grizzlies due to a left calf strain and a lingering right knee injury, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
Impact Adams will miss his second consecutive game to open the regular season. The big man is expected to serve as the primary backup center behind Alperen Sengun, and Jock Landale will likely pick up extra minutes until Adams can return to game action. His next chance to suit up will come Saturday against the Spurs.
OCTOBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Steven Adams - Game-time decision Friday Adams (knee) is considered day-to-day and a game-time decision for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Adams missed Houston's regular-season opener Wednesday due to a right knee injury and is in danger of missing his second straight contest. If Adams is unable to suit up against Memphis, Jock Landale should continue to function as the team's backup center.
OCTOBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Underwhelming performance Eason ended Wednesday's 110-105 loss to the Hornets with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 13 minutes.
Impact Eason was quiet in the loss, a worrying sign for anyone who took a chance on him in drafts. On a roster laden with upside, Eason simply doesn't have a clear path to minutes. Despite a fantasy-friendly game, he is not someone who needs to be rostered in all spots.
OCTOBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Reed Sheppard - Quiet in debut Wednesday Sheppard totaled four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and one block over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 110-105 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Sheppard played just 16 minutes in his debut, ending with a modest line. Despite being arguably the most talented player in the 2024 draft class, Sheppard finds himself battling a number of other up-and-coming players for playing time. At best, he should be viewed as a backend fantasy asset. Should the Rockets encounter injuries at any point, his value could increase, as could be the case later in the season if they fall out of playoff contention.
OCTOBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Green - Leads Rockets with 28 points Green accumulated 28 points (9-23 FG, 5-15 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and two rebounds in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 110-105 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Green picked up where he left off last season, leading Houston with 28 points. Although his points production was more than adequate, the same cannot be said for the rest of his line. Inefficient shooting and a lack of peripheral stats are something he has been a victim of throughout his career. While he is absolutely worth rostering, managers should be aware of his flaws.

Alperen Sengün - Stuffs stat sheet in opener Sengun produced 25 points (10-22 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 18 rebounds, five assists, one block and four steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 110-105 loss to the Hornets.
Impact Just two days after inking a five-year, $185 million extension with the Rockets, Sengun showed exactly why he's considered a cornerstone of Houston's roster. The 22-year-old logged at least 18 rebounds for the fourth time in his career and notched his fifth game of with at least four steals. The center connected on two of his three attempts from long distance, which may have been an area of emphasis over the offseason after shooting 29.7 percent from range in 2023-24.
