Jae'Sean Tate - Provides edge for Team Barry Tate totaled 12 points (4-4 FG, 4-7 FT), seven rebounds, one steal and one block across back-to-back wins during the Rising Stars competition at All-Star Weekend.
Impact Tate sealed the victory over Team Payton in the first leg of the new format with a difficult lefty layup. He maintained that energy in the championship contest and finished in a three-way tie with Cade Cunningham and Evan Mobley for a team-high five points.
FEBRUARY 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Green - Leads Team Worthy with 20 points Green totaled 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block during Friday's 50-49 loss to Team Isiah during the Rising Stars competition at All-...
Impact Green's full offensive repertoire was on display for Team Worthy. The 6-foot-4 guard made numerous highlight-reel plays at the rim and showed off his shooting range by knocking down a game-high four threes. The 2021 No. 2 overall draft pick was aggressive early and often during the first leg of the new Rising Stars format, but his performance was ultimately not enough as Saddiq Bey swatted his potential game-winning shot before Desmond Bane iced the game for Team Isiah with a pair of free throws.

Dennis Schröder might be exactly what these young Rockets need: The IkoSystem Schröder brings high energy, a defensive presence and vocal leadership — a nice combination for a young Rockets team during a rebuild year.

Josh Christopher - Looks good in increased opportunity Christopher recorded 13 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and three steals in 26 minutes during Thursday's 142-111 loss to the Clippers.
Impact The Rockets trailed big for much of the contest, giving Christopher the opportunity to see more than his usual amount of time on the court. He responded with his highest scoring effort since Feb. 4, which happened to be the last time he played more than 25 minutes prior to Thursday. Christopher has flashed potential when presented the opportunity this season -- he is averaging 16.1 points, 1.7 three-pointers and 1.8 steals per 36 minutes on the campaign.
FEBRUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Christian Wood - Muted effort in return Wood notched 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals across 25 minutes during Thursday's 142-111 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Wood returned to the lineup after a one-game absence due to an illness, but he wasn't able to offer his usual level of production in the blowout loss. The sixth-year center made half of his 10 field-goal attempts, yet he finished well below his season average of 17.5 points. Wood played only 25 minutes, and it stands to reason that his numbers will increase as his time on the court returns to normal.
FEBRUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Green - Leads Rockets with 21 points Green notched 21 points (8-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt), two assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Thursday's 142-111 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Houston was blown out Thursday, but Green enjoyed a solid offensive performance with five triples and a team-leading 21 points. He has knocked down multiple three-pointers in three straight contests and has shot a healthy 47.5 percent overall -- and 44.4 percent from beyond the arc -- over that stretch. Those numbers are vast improvements over his 38.7 percent field-goal rate and 31.1 percent mark from deep on the season.

Alperen Sengun - Returns to bench role Sengun isn't starting Thursday's game against the Clippers, Mirjam Swanson of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Impact Sengun drew a spot start Wednesday with Christian Wood out due to illness, and he made the most of his opportunity, bringing home a double-double in a 124-121 loss. He'll be back in his usual role Thursday now that Wood has been cleared to return to play.
FEBRUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Garrison Mathews - Back with first five Mathews is starting Thursday against the Clippers, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact Mathews will draw his second start in four games with Eric Gordon (groin) unavailable again Thursday. He put up a solid final line in his last start Feb. 10 against Toronto, finishing with 19 points, six boards and a steal in 32 minutes.

Kevin Porter Jr. - Ruled out Thursday Porter (illness) won't play in Thursday's game against the Clippers, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.
Impact As expected, Porter will miss a second straight game due to an illness, so he'll look to get healthy over the All-Star break before returning for the second half of the season. In his absence, Dennis Schroder and Jalen Green figure to handle most of the point guard duties against the Clippers.

Eric Gordon - Unavailable Thursday Gordon has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Clippers due to right groin soreness.
Impact Gordon logged 38 minutes of playing time during Wednesday's loss to Phoenix, but he'll sit out the team's last game prior to the All-Star break. Garrison Mathews, David Nwaba and Josh Christopher should see increased run against the Clippers.
