NBA Mock Draft 1.0: Paolo Banchero, Jabari Smith top list
Josh Christopher - Explodes for 30 points off bench Christopher finished with 30 points (11-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds and two steals in 30 minutes during Sunday's 139-132 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Christopher recorded his best game of the season by a wide margin, and the 30-point output was a career-high mark for the young guard. The inconsistencies on a game-to-game basis are normal for a rookie, but he's ending the year on a strong note by scoring in double digits in four of his last seven appearances, including putting up 20 points or more twice in that span.
APRIL 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Green - Carries Houston in loss Green accumulated 31 points (12-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-6 FT), two rebounds and five assists in 36 minutes during Sunday's 139-132 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact The rookie has been nearly unstoppable in recent weeks, and in addition to putting up 20-plus points in six straight games, he's also reached the 30-point plateau in each of his last four contests. Green is ending his rookie year in the Association in a strong way, averaging 22.7 points per game over his last 10 appearances.
APRIL 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Porter Jr. - Stuffs stat sheet in loss Porter closed with 21 points (6-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Sunday's 139-132 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Porter was at the center of the Rockets' competitive performance with excellent all-around outing. The young floor general continues to make an impact on the offensive end of the court and has now surpassed the 20-point mark in four straight contests.

Houston visits Brooklyn after Durant's 55-point game

Brooklyn takes on the Houston Rockets after Kevin Durant scored 55 points in the Brooklyn Nets' 122-115 loss to the Atlanta Hawks
APRIL 4, 2022 • Associated Press
Alperen Sengun - In starting five Sunday Sengun will start Sunday's game against Minnesota, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Sengun missed the previous two games with a lower-leg bruise, but he's been cleared to return and will get the start at center with Christian Wood (hamstring) shut down for the year. Assuming he can stay healthy, Sengun should be in position to hold on to that role for the Rockets' four remaining regular season contests.
APRIL 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Alperen Sengun - Off injury report Sengun (lower leg) is off the injury report for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Impact The rookie will return following a two-game absence, and he should start with Christian Wood (hamstring) out for the year. As a starter, Sengun is averaging 11.4 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.1 blocks in 27.7 minutes.
APRIL 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Garrison Mathews - Explodes for 22 points Friday Mathews finished with 22 points (7-11 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 33 minutes during Friday's 122-117 loss to the Kings.
Impact Mathews has had quite a few 20-point performances this season, but this one was eye-popping since he hadn't scored more than 10 points in each of his last 15 contests. As if that was not enough, the fact that his role often changes between a starter and a bench piece reduces his upside even further.
APRIL 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Green - Another 30-point effort Green had 33 points (9-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 9-9 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 40 minutes during Friday's 122-117 loss to Sacramento.
Impact Green is finally living up to the hype that made him one of the top picks in the 2021 NBA Draft, and while the up-and-downs are expected for a rookie, he's been tearing it up of late. Over his last 10 contests, Green is averaging 21.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists while shooting 42 percent from deep. As if that wasn't enough, Green has also scored 30 or more points in each of his last three appearances.
APRIL 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Porter Jr. - Shines as playmaker once again Porter posted 27 points (11-24 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, 11 assists and four steals in 38 minutes during Friday's 122-117 loss to the Kings.
Impact Porter has been one of the best offensive weapons for the Rockets this season and looked impressive both as a scorer and as a distributor, as he recorded double-digit assists for the third time over his last four contests. The young floor general is ending the season on a sizzling note and has averaged 18.2 points, 7.2 assists and 4.9 rebounds per game over his last 10 contests.
