Amen Thompson - Starting vs. Utah Thompson will be in the Rockets' starting lineup for Monday's preseason game against the Jazz, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Thompson will get the start over Dillon Brooks (rest) for Monday's preseason opener. The 2023 first-round pick was inserted into the starting lineup late in his rookie season, and across his last 17 starts he averaged 13.9 points on 58.6 percent shooting, 9.2 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals across 29.6 minutes per game.
OCTOBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jeff Green - Won't play Monday Green (rest) will not play in Monday's preseason game against the Jazz, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Out for Monday Eason (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason opener against the Jazz, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower left leg, though he has been an active participant during training camp thus far. The 23-year-old is likely only out for an extra day of rest, and he is expected to be available for Opening Night. With Eason out, the club will get an extended look at Cam Whitmore, Jae'Sean Tate and Nate Williams.
OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jock Landale - Gets Monday to rest Landale won't suit up for Monday's preseason game against the Jazz, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Feigen notes that Landale hasn't picked up any sort of injury and he's simply getting the night off due to this being an exhibition. He'll have a chance to make his preseason debut Wednesday against the Thunder.
OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dillon Brooks - Won't play Monday Brooks (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason opener against Utah, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Brooks will stay on the sidelines Monday, though it is more than likely nothing more than an extra day of rest for the eighth-year vet. With Brooks out, the Rockets will likely get an extended look at Reed Sheppard, Cam Whitmore and Amen Thompson.

Fred VanVleet - Cleared for training camp VanVleet, who missed the final two games of the 2023-24 season with a hip injury, is set to be a full participant in Houston's training camp next Tuesday, Jonathan Feigen of the Ho...
Impact The Rockets were likely being cautious with VanVleet during that portion of their season, so the veteran's status wasn't in any real doubt heading into camp. For what it's worth, the entire Houston roster has been scrimmaging with contact since last week, so they should hit the ground running at the start of camp.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jae'Sean Tate - Good to go for camp Tate (ankle) will be a full participant at Houston's training camp next Tuesday, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Tate missed the final six games of the 2023-24 campaign with a right ankle sprain. He's been scrimmaging with contact since last week, however, so it's unlikely that he will have limitations during camp. Tate finished the regular season with averages of 4.1 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.9 minutes across 65 appearances.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Alperen Sengün - All set for camp Sengun, who missed the final 18 games of the 2023-24 season with a Grade 3 right ankle sprain, will be ready for training camp this week, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle r...
Impact Adams also battled a bone bruise in his right knee at the end of the season, but he will be 100 percent heading into training camp. Feigen reports that Houston's whole team will be a go for camp, and that the team has been doing full-contact scrimmages since last week. Sengun is primed for a massive 2024-25 season after posting averages of 21.1 points, 9.3 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.7 blocks and 0.5 three-pointers in 32.5 minutes per game over 63 appearances last campaign.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Steven Adams - Cleared for camp Adams (knee) will be a full participant at Houston's training camp this week, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Adams missed the entire 2023-24 NBA season due to knee surgery, but he's heading into camp with a clean bill of health. In fact, Feigen reports that Adams was able to take part in scrimmages last week, and that he impressed those in attendance. As it stands, it appears that Adams will be ready to fill in as Houston's backup center behind Alperen Sengun.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Works out ahead of training camp Eason (lower back) worked out with several Rockets teammates before Houston's Media Day on Tuesday, Michael Shapiro of SI.com reports.
Impact Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower leg, but as expected, he's back to full strength ahead of training camp. The 2022 No. 17 overall pick averaged 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.8 minutes per game last season. However, the Rockets also have Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore as ascending frontcourt options, limiting Eason's fantasy ceiling in Year 3.
