Amen Thompson - Records double-double in loss Thompson provided 24 points (8-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-11 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 103-102 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Thompson logged his seventh double-double of the season and his second double-double in three games. The prolfic playmaker is on pace to have an excellent first month of 2026, averaging 21.0 points, 8.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.5 steals over the first four games of the year.
JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Durant - Paces team with 37 points Durant ended with 37 points (14-26 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-9 FT), four rebounds and one block across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 103-102 loss to Portland.
Impact Durant matched his best scoring total of the season in the narrow loss. He also matched his highest shot volume of the season with 26 hot attempts. Wednesday marked the eighth time this season that Durant has attempted 20 shots, and he's yet to log less than 11 shot attempts over 32 games.
JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Fails to beat clock in final shot Eason ended with 15 points (5-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 103-102 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Although Eason sank the potential game-winner with time expiring, the shot was waved off after the team cleared the bench, assuming a victory. Eason was a great help to Houston with Alperen Sengun (ankle) sidelined, and he led the squad with 13 boards. He fared much better than teammate Jabari Smith, who fell short of a decent result after projections placed him with a higher total in the injury scenario.
