Scores 18 with seven dimes VanVleet finished with 18 points (5-12 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, seven assists and three steals over 39 minutes during Saturday's 109-106 loss to the Spurs.
Impact VanVleet finished just three assists away from recording a double-double in this loss to San Antonio. Even though he has settled into the role of being the Rockets' third-best offensive option behind Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun, VanVleet shouldn't have problems remaining a consistent fantasy producer who should deliver around 15 points and six assists on a steady basis.

Scores 15, dishes out five dimes VanVleet delivered 15 points (5-12 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), a rebound, five assists and a steal across 28 minutes in Thursday's 129-107 preseason win over the Spurs.
Impact Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun led the way for the Rockets in this one after combining for 51 points, but VanVleet can't be overlooked as one of the team's main offensive threats as well. The veteran floor general will be the one in charge of running the show in his second year with the Rockets, and he averaged 17.4 points with a career-best 8.1 assists per game in 2023-24.

Won't play Wednesday VanVleet (rest) will not play in Wednesday's preseason game versus Oklahoma City, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact VanVleet will be replaced by Amen Thompson in the starting lineup Wednesday. VanVleet's next opportunity for preseason reps comes against the Pelicans on Tuesday.

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.

Won't play Sunday VanVleet (hip) will not play Sunday against the Clippers.
Impact VanVleet will end up sitting for the second time in a row to end the regular season. His debut campaign with the Rockets was a success, as he averaged a career-high 8.1 assists to go with 17.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 3.1 three-pointers.
APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Friday VanVleet has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a right hip contusion.
Impact VanVleet will sit out the second night of a back-to-back set after scoring a season-high 42 points during a loss to Utah on Thursday. The veteran will have only one more chance to suit up this season -- Sunday in Los Angeles against the Clippers.
APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE
Scores season-high 42 points VanVleet recorded 42 points (12-30 FG, 9-13 3Pt, 9-10 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Thursday's 124-121 loss to Utah.
Impact VanVleet was absolutely impressive Thursday, filling the stat sheet and sniffing a triple-double while posting a season-high scoring mark. The Rockets have nothing to play for in the final two games of the campaign, but VanVleet is ending the season on a strong note. He's averaged 20.8 points, 7.0 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game across his last 10 appearances.

Drops season-high 37 points VanVleet posted 37 points (13-22 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 38 minutes during Tuesday's 118-106 victory over the Magic.
Impact VanVleet was spectacular in the win, scoring a season-high 37 points including six triples. Despite a few scoring lapses from time to time, VanVleet has put together a strong season. He is the 17th-ranked player in standard leagues, averaging 17.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.8 blocks and 3.0 three-pointers. He is arguably the face of the franchise in Houston, meaning his role is unlikely to change too much heading into the 2-24-25 season.

Notches double-double Sunday VanVleet produced 24 points (9-21 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), one rebound, 12 assists and one steal across 44 minutes during Sunday's 147-136 overtime loss to the Mavericks.
Impact VanVleet registered his 20th double-double of the season Sunday, which is as many as he recorded with the Raptors over the previous two seasons. It was the first time since March 21 against the Bulls that he recorded 10-plus assists. VanVleet's scoring numbers are down in his first year in Houston, but he's averaging a career-high 8.1 assists. Over his last 10 games, he has averaged 17.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 2.3 steals over 36.5 minutes per game.
APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE
Scores 22 points in loss Tuesday VanVleet provided 22 points (9-20 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, five assists and five steals across 41 minutes during Tuesday's 113-106 loss to Minnesota.
Impact Similar to what happened with Jalen Green, VanVleet had a rough night from the three-point lead but still delivered a strong scoring line. VanVleet has not been at his best in recent weeks, though. He's failed to reach the 20-point mark in five of his last eight appearances, a span where he's shooting just 41.4 percent from the field and 37.8 percent from deep. However, he still salvages his fantasy contributions due to strong peripheral stats that include 7.3 assists and 2.4 steals per game in that stretch.
APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE
Scores 22 with six dimes VanVleet produced 22 points (9-24 FG, 4-14 3Pt), two rebounds, six assists, three blocks and four steals in 42 minutes during Friday's 101-100 win over Utah.
Impact The Rockets pushed their winning streak to 11 games, and as has been the trend during that span, VanVleet delivered another solid showing. Even though his shooting figures weren't efficient Friday, as he ended with more shot attempts than points scored, VanVleet at least managed to reach the 20-point mark for the second time over his last seven appearances. The veteran floor general averages 16.1 points per game in that span despite shooting a subpar 38.3 percent from the field.
MARCH 30 • ROTOWIRE
Poor shooting display Monday VanVleet provided 15 points (5-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 26 minutes during Monday's 110-92 victory over the Trail Blazers.
Impact VanVleet posted a solid all-around stat line in 26 minutes, as he found a way to contribute on both ends of the court, but he struggled in terms of efficiency with his shot. The veteran floor general has failed to surpass the 15-point mark in four of Houston's last five games, but that's also because Jalen Green has taken on a more prominent role as a scorer. Despite that cold stretch, VanVleet is averaging 18.8 points and 9.5 assists per game since the beginning of March.
MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE
Makes 10 threes in win Saturday VanVleet supplied 34 points (11-16 FG, 10-15 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 28 minutes during Saturday's 147-119 win over the Jazz.
Impact VanVleet finished just one three-pointer away from tying his personal mark, but he tied the franchise's mark of most threes in a single game, a record previously co-held by James Harden and Chandler Parsons. VanVleet also scored a season-high 34 points, and while Jalen Green has been gaining most of the attention due to his impressive play, VanVleet has been outstanding in his own right, too. During Houston's ongoing eight-game winning run, VanVleet is averaging 18.9 points, 10.1 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game.
