Sengun is one of several starters who will sit for the Rockets. Tari Eason and Clint Capela should see more run as a result.
Şengün finished Tuesday's win over the Suns with 12 points (5-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds, and six assists — a double-double that came to life in the fourth quarter, where he recorded three assists and just one turnover as Houston pulled away.
