Steven Adams - Questionable to face OKC Adams (knee) is questionable to play Friday against the Thunder.
Impact Adams is working his way back from a gruesome knee injury, and while he's already made three appearances off the bench this season, the Rockets are being cautious with him. The veteran big man should operate as Alperen Sengun's backup at center if deemed available, though a decision on his status will be made closer to Friday's 8 p.m. ET tip-off time.

Cam Whitmore - Sent to G League Whitmore was assigned to the Rockets' G League affiliate Thursday, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.
Impact Whitmore has struggled to carve out a significant role to begin the season, and in the club's last four regular-season games he has made three appearances while averaging 4.7 points and 1.3 rebounds across only 6.7 minutes per game. The 20-year-old isn't expected to spend much time with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, though he'll likely struggle to find significant playing time at the NBA level while competing for minutes with Amen Thompson, Reed Sheppard and Tari Eason.

Alperen Sengün - Fills stat sheet Wednesday Sengun chipped in 16 points (8-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 127-100 victory over the Spurs.
Impact Sengun's final stat line could've been even more robust hadn't he played "only" 24 minutes in this 27-point blowout win over the Spurs. The star big man couldn't keep the double-double streak alive, but he remains a capable two-way presence, having notched that feat in six of his eight contests thus far. In eight appearances this season, Sengun is averaging 16.4 points, 11.4 rebounds, 3.9 assists and a combined 2.4 steals-and-blocks across 28.4 minutes per game.
NOVEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Green - Scores 21 points in win Green closed with 21 points (6-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 127-100 victory over the Spurs.
Impact Green got back to his usual scoring ways after two games in which he delivered below-average production. Even though he might be prone to having a few off nights every now and then, Green's role as one of the Rockets' primary offensive weapons looks set in stone. He's scored at least 20 points in six of his eight appearances this season while averaging a solid 22.6 points per contest.
NOVEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Fred VanVleet - Sniffs triple-double in win VanVleet accumulated 21 points (10-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, 10 assists and two steals in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 127-100 victory over the Spurs.
Impact VanVleet delivered his best game of the season Monday, setting up season-high marks in points, rebounds and assists while ending just three boards shy of a triple-double. With Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green entrenched as the Rockets' go-to options on offense, VanVleet's upside has reduced a little. However, he remains a solid contributor across all formats due to the impact he can make on both ends of the court. VanVleet is averaging 14.3 points, 6.1 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game across his first eight outings.

Tari Eason - Will play Wednesday Eason (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
Impact Eason was deemed questionable for the contest due to illness, but he'll give it a go Wednesday. Eason is averaging 13.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.8 combined steals-plus-blocks across his last four outings.
