PJ Tucker has one year left on his contract and hopes for an extension to remain a Rocket, he says, “I love Houston. I’ve said it many times. I want to retire as a Houston Rocket. The fans, the city have embraced me since day one. So, fingers crossed, I hope we can strike a deal and get it done.” (Mark Berman on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Tucker remains a crucial component of the Rockets rotation. This year he has played in 64 contests and has averaged 34.4 minutes of playing time, 7.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.1 steals, and .5 blocks per game. Although his production night-in and night-out can be inconsistent at times, his ability to stuff the stat sheet any given night makes him worth keeping on your fantasy radar as a possible source of salary relief. His sheer volume alone makes him an asset to own in deep-league play.
