INJURIES

Off injury report Smith (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Impact Smith did not play in the back leg of the Rockets' back-to-back set against the Trail Blazers on Friday due to a right ankle sprain. The 2022 first-rounder isn't listed on the injury report, which means Reed Sheppard will likely revert to a bench role for Sunday's contest.

Ruled out Friday Smith (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Portland.
Impact Smith will miss a third outing over a four-game span due to a right ankle sprain, and his next opportunity to play will come Sunday in San Antonio. With the 22-year-old forward sidelined, Reed Sheppard will likely return to the starting five, while Dorian Finney-Smith and Josh Okogie are also candidates to see increased playing time.

Questionable for Friday Smith (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Impact Smith logged a heavy 42-minute workload in his return from a two-game absence on Thursday, though he struggled significantly with his shot, finishing 0-for-8 from the floor. While the heavy minutes suggest the Rockets aren't overly concerned with the long-term health of his right ankle, the quick turnaround for the second half of a back-to-back has placed his availability in doubt. If Smith is ultimately held out to manage the injury, Reed Sheppard and Josh Okogie would likely see increased roles in the rotation.

Logs big minutes in return Smith (ankle) registered three points (0-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 42 minutes Thursday in the Rockets' 115-113 overtime loss...
Impact Though Smith couldn't get any shots to fall in his return from a two-game absence, the heavy minutes he received are an indication that the Rockets aren't concerned about the health of his right ankle moving forward. The poor shooting performance should be viewed as an outlier for Smith, who had hit double figures in the scoring column while converting at a 55 percent clip from the field and 45.1 percent clip from downtown over his previous 13 appearances.
3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Upgraded to available Smith (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Warriors.
Impact Smith is back from a two-game absence with a sprained right ankle, and he should send Reed Sheppard back to the bench Thursday. Smith is looking to pick up where he left off in his last eight games before getting injured, as he was averaging 17.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.0 blocks in 34.7 minutes per contest while shooting 57.6 percent from the field during that period.

Questionable for Thursday Smith is questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors with a right ankle sprain.
Impact It appeared initially that Smith was in the clear for Thursday, but now it looks like the Rockets want him to test out the injury during pregame warmups before giving him the green light. If Smith is able to return from a two-game absence, Reed Sheppard would likely revert back to the bench.
5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Will play Thursday Smith (ankle) will play Thursday against the Warriors, according to Rockets reporter Will Funkel.
Impact Smith is set to return from his ankle issue after two games on the sidelines. Amen Thompson (ankle) is also good to go for Houston. With this news, Reed Sheppard is likely to retreat to the bench.

Impact Smith will miss Saturday's game against the Heat and also Monday's game against the Wizards. This will give the forward some extra rest on the road. Reed Sheppard will start in Smith's place for at least Saturday's game.

Ruled out with ankle sprain Smith is out for Saturday's game against the Heat with a right ankle sprain.
Impact Smith rolled his ankle during Thursday's tilt against Orlando, and he'll need at least one game on the sidelines. The star big man can be deemed day-to-day ahead of Monday's clash versus the Wizards. Reed Sheppard is the most likely choice to replace Smith in the starting lineup and appears to be strong fantasy option in all leagues Saturday.

Impact Smith was taken out at the 1:42 mark of the fourth quarter after he rolled his ankle when he stepped on Alperen Sengun's foot. Smith will undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury, but it puts him in jeopardy of missing Saturday's game against the Heat, which would be his first absence since Nov. 3. Josh Okogie, Reed Sheppard and Dorian Finney-Smith figure to be the top candidates to enter the Rockets' starting lineup if Smith were to miss time.

Impact Smith appeared to roll his right ankle when he stepped on Alperen Sengun's foot while on defense, and the former was accompanied by medical staff to the locker room. Assuming his night is done, Smith will finish with 13 points (6-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 29 minutes. Josh Okogie and Reed Sheppard should see more minutes down the stretch.

Smith scores 31 points and Thompson adds 20 as Rockets beat the Jazz 125-105

Jabari Smith Jr. had 31 points and nine rebounds and Amen Thompson scored 20 points as the Houston Rockets beat the Utah Jazz 125-105
FEBRUARY 24 • Associated Press
Catches fire from deep Smith produced 31 points (12-17 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, three steals and three blocks in 33 minutes during Monday's 125-105 victory over the Jazz.
Impact Monday marked just the second time in 55 games this season that Smith has reached the 30-point mark, and he also showed up on the defensive end by recording at last one steal and one block for a third straight appearance. It's evident that Smith has been feeling locked in from beyond the arc lately, as he's knocked down 10 of 19 attempts over his last two appearances. The Auburn product has also been highly productive on the boards and is averaging 8.7 rebounds over his last six outings.
