GAME LOG

Reed Sheppard - Season-high seven points Monday Sheppard ended with seven points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and two rebounds in 14 minutes during Monday's 109-97 win over the Knicks.
Impact Sheppard saw double-digit minutes for the first time since Oct. 25 against Memphis. The third overall pick of the 2024 Draft has averaged only 3.1 points and 1.1 assists while shooting 39.1 percent from the field across 9.3 minutes per game over seven regular-season outings. Sheppard will likely continue to compete for a slight uptick in playing time with Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore in the frontcourt.

Jabari Smith Jr. - Lackluster performance in win Smith added seven points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt), six rebounds and an assist across 22 minutes in Monday's 109-97 win over New York.
Impact Monday's game marked season lows in both minutes and points for Smith, following his season high in both categories the game prior. While he is averaging 12.6 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.4 blocks over 31.0 minutes this season, it is definitely worth monitoring his consistency regarding his offensive production moving forward.

Dillon Brooks - Questionable for Wednesday Brooks is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Spurs due to an illness.
Impact Brooks has been a regular for the Rockets this season, starting in each of his seven appearances and logging a solid 33.4 minutes per contest. If Brooks ends up being ruled out, then Amen Thompson, Cam Whitmore, Tari Eason or even Reed Sheppard are all conditions to log some of his minutes.
NOVEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Tari Eason - Cools off following major outing Eason posted seven points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, an assist and a block over 25 minutes in Monday's 109-97 victory over the Knicks.
Impact After two back-to-back games with 15+ points and 10+ field goal attempts (the most recent being a 27 point explosion), Eason was not able to maintain his production Monday as he put up a more modest statline. Despite this, his 25 minutes were his second most in a game this season, which is an encouraging sign moving forward. Through 7 games, Eason averages 10.9 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.0 blocks in 21.1 minutes.
NOVEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Steven Adams - Sitting out against San Antonio Adams (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Spurs.
Impact Adams will be forced to sit out yet another game Wednesday due to right knee injury recovery. In his absence, Jock Landale should operate as Houston's backup center to Alperen Sengun. Adams' next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with the Thunder.

Dillon Brooks - Efficient from outside in win Brooks closed Monday's 109-97 victory over New York with 13 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds in 31 minutes.
Impact Brooks' production has been inconsistent to start the 2024-25 campaign, though his performance from beyond the arc was impressive Monday. The 28-year-old followed a three-game span in which he shot 23.5 percent from deep by going 3-for-5 against the Knicks. Brooks' defensive numbers have been down this season, on top of shooting only 37.5 percent from the field, though he is averaging 33.4 minutes per game and has four outings in double figures.
NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE
Amen Thompson - Nears double-double in win Thompson totaled 12 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 109-97 victory over the Knicks.
Impact Thompson led the bench in scoring Monday after posting a double-double in Saturday's loss to the Warriors. The 21-year-old has received significant minutes off the bench, and he has scored in double figures in three straight appearances. Thompson is expected to remain the Rockets' top option off the bench, though he could make a case to enter the starting lineup, especially if injury concerns arise for the club.
NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE
Fred VanVleet - Bounces back in win VanVleet ended Monday's 109-97 victory over New York with 19 points (8-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists, two rebounds, two steals and one block over 36 minutes.
Impact VanVleet ended as the club's second-leading scorer behind Alperen Sengun (25) in the win. After a three-game span in which the 30-year-old shot 20.5 percent from the field, he produced a bounce-back outing with an efficient game. VanVleet's offensive production has been limited thus far, and he has averaged 13.3 points, 5.6 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals across 37.6 minutes per game in seven regular-season outings. However, he remains a crucial part of the Rockets' frontcourt and has also racked up two-plus steals in four outings.
NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE
Alperen Sengün - Another double-double in win Sengun had 25 points (11-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 14 rebounds, five assists and four blocks over 33 minutes during Monday's 109-97 win over New York.
Impact Sengun posted a team-high 25 points and 14 rebounds while dominating on both ends of the floor. The big man has tallied four consecutive double-doubles, and he has amassed six across seven regular-season outings. The 22-year-old also racked up a season-high four blocks, and he continues to stuff the stat sheet, though his efficiency is a bit concerning as he has shot only 43.9 percent from the field.

Steven Adams - Will play vs. Knicks Adams (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Knicks, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.
Impact Adams is still in the final stages of his recovery from right knee surgery as he sat out of Saturday's game against the Warriors. He appeared in the two games prior, during which he averaged 12.0 minutes per contest. Adams should see the same amount of minutes Monday and will be limited to five-minute stints, per Bondy, as he operates behind Alperen Sengun at center.
