Sturdy 19 points in loss Mathews posted 19 points (5-9 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-9 FT), six rebounds and one steal in 32 minutes during Thursday's 139-120 loss to Toronto.

Impact Mathews has been all over the map lately. He'll produce from deep, be productive from two-point range or collect from the charity stripe -- but rarely a combination and sometimes none. That being said, Thursday marked a realistic expectation for Mathews' nightly ceiling. On the season, Mathews is averaging 11.6 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.

Impact Mathews is slowly carving a role as a bench scoring threat for the Rockets and made his presence felt once again, draining five threes and ending as one of the Rockets' main scoring weapons. He has scored in double digits in four of his last five appearances and is shooting an impressive 40.5 percent from deep in that span, so expect Mathews to continue seeing minutes off the bench for Houston.

Mathews scores 23, Rockets rally past scuffling Jazz 116-111 Garrison Mathews scored 23 points, including five 3-pointers, to send the Houston Rockets to a 116-111 victory over the scuffling Utah Jazz.

Leads team to victory Mathews accumulated 23 points (5-10 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 8-10 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 116-111 win over the Jazz.

Impact In the third quarter, Mathews checked back into the game and never left, as the Rockets erased Utah's 13-point lead. Mathews' 23 points matched a season-high, and it was his second-best night beyond the arc with five threes. After a three-game drought, Mathews has come alive with two excellent stat lines this week. He may be in line to extend that streak Friday, as the Warriors continue to play without Draymond Green.

Impact Mathews entered Sunday after being held scoreless over 38 minutes across two games prior. Helping guide a Rockets victory, Mathews arose from his slump by putting forth a quintessential offensive performance -- sourcing all of his points from deep or from the free-throw line. The 25-year-old is slashing 40.3/35.8/79.7 in 27 appearances this season.
