Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Chips in full stat line
Sheppard ended Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers with 17 points (6-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 25 minutes.
With Fred VanVleet (knee) sidelined, Sheppard is locking down a big role in the backcourt during the first part of the season. The second-year guard has averaged 10.8 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.5 steals in 23.7 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, but he's shooting only 36.5 percent from the floor during this stretch.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Tallies another double-double
Smith notched 16 points (6-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and 12 rebounds over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Smith turned in his third consecutive double-double Wednesday. The fourth-year big man has averaged 14.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.0 steals in 35.4 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, shooting 41.8 percent from deep.

Rockets' Amen Thompson: Another solid effort
Thompson amassed 12 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal across 41 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Thompson continues to enjoy a productive third season with the Rockets. The versatile forward has averaged 14.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.7 steals in 37.2 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, shooting 45.7 percent from the floor.

Rockets' Josh Okogie: Comes up empty in loss
Okogie recorded no counting stats in 10 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Okogie did his best Tony Snell impersonation, failing to record a stat despite playing 10 minutes. While he has been able to remain in the rotation, Okogie rarely contributes in the box score. In 52 games this season, he has averaged just 5.2 points and 0.9 steals in 19.6 minutes per game.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Struggles from floor in loss
Eason closed Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers with 13 points (4-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and three assists over 34 minutes.
Eason shot the ball poorly yet again, although the fact that he played 34 minutes on the second night of a back-to-back has to be the real talking point. Managers should now feel comfortable deploying him on a nightly basis, assuming he suffers no setbacks moving forward. The hope is that his production can increase, having averaged just 13.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.5 three-pointers in six games over the past two weeks.

Rockets' Clint Capela: Blocks four shots in loss
Capela posted three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and four blocks across 16 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.
Capela salvaged another poor performance by matching his season-high with four blocks. Despite assuming the primary backup role behind Alperen Sengun, Capela's time as a fantasy-relevant player has certainly come and gone. At best, managers can utilize him for streaming purposes, if and when blocks are at the top of the priority list.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Will play Wednesday
Sengun (leg) is available for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.
Sengun was initially listed as probable, and now we have official confirmation that he'll be out there for Wednesday's rematch. The All-Star center is averaging 20.8 points, 9.4 rebounds, 6.3 assists 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks per game this season.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Available to play
Eason (leg) will play Wednesday against the Clippers.
Wednesday's game will mark the first time this season that Eason will have appeared in both matches of a back-to-back set, which is an encouraging sign moving forward. Eason was limited to just six points on 2-for-10 shooting his last time out, so he'll be looking to bounce back in Wednesday's rematch with the Clippers.

Rockets' Dorian Finney-Smith: Resting Wednesday
Finney-Smith (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.
As expected, Finney-Smith will be held out for the second leg of the back-to-back set due to left ankle injury management. Finney-Smith played a season-high 20 minutes in Tuesday's 102-95 win over the Clippers, finishing with three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two assists, one rebound and one block.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Iffy for Wednesday
Eason is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to left lower leg injury management.
A maintenance day could be in the cards for Eason in the second leg of a back-to-back set. The fourth-year forward played 30 minutes in Tuesday's 102-95 win over the Clippers, finishing with six points (2-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 30 minutes.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Probable for Wednesday
Sengun is listed probable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to a left lower leg contusion.
Sengun is expected to power through the mild injury and play in the second leg of a back-to-back set. He logged 35 minutes in Tuesday's 102-95 win over the Clippers, finishing with 22 points, seven rebounds and five assists in 35 minutes.

Rockets' Dorian Finney-Smith: Limited again in victory
Finney-Smith produced three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one block in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 102-95 victory over the Clippers.
Finney-Smith scored fewer than five points for the seventh straight game, despite the fact that he has carved out a somewhat consistent role. In 12 appearances over the past month, he has averaged just 3.1 points in 16.1 minutes, leaving him well and truly off the fantasy radar.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Logs 30 minutes Tuesday
Sheppard logged 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 102-95 win over the Clippers.
Sheppard logged at least 30 minutes for the second straight game, with head coach Ime Udoka opting to run with an eight-man rotation. While this was certainly an encouraging performance, managers are right to be skeptical when it comes to Sheppard's playing time. He is worth adding if he was dropped in your league, although do so with caution, given what we have seen in Houston this season.

Rockets' Kevin Durant: Scores 26 points in win
Durant chipped in 26 points (8-22 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals during Tuesday's 102-95 win over the Clippers.
Durant led Houston with 26 points, although it was not his most efficient night by his standards, as he shot just 36.4 percent from the field. The 37-year-old played 40-plus minutes for the 12th time this season and ranks third in the NBA in minutes per game at 36.7, continuing to defy Father Time.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Won't start Tuesday
Sheppard won't start Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Sheppard got the starting nod in Saturday's win over the Thunder due to Amen Thompson being under the weather, though the former will slide back to the second unit Tuesday. Over his last five outings off the bench, Sheppard has averaged 8.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.0 assists across 22.0 minutes per tilt.

Tate (wrist) is available for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Tate will be available as an emergency depth option off the bench, but he's not guaranteed any rotation minutes.
