Availability
Jabari Smith Jr. scored nine points (4-13 FG, 0-3 3PT, 1-3 FT) and grabbed seven rebounds in Sunday's 111-98 win over the Sacramento Kings.
Fantasy Impact
Smith continued his cold streak on Sunday night. He scored just nine points against the Kings, and his efficiency from the field continued to be dismal. He should continue to see a large workload for the foreseeable future, but fantasy managers should have tempered expectations for him at this point.
Jabari Smith Jr. scored just six points (2-13 FG, 1-7 3PT, 1-1 FT) and grabbed four rebounds in Wednesday's 103-102 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.
Fantasy Impact
The Rockets suffered a narrow loss at the hands of Portland on Wednesday night. Smith's underwhelming performance may have been the difference, as he was only able to score six points throughout 37 minutes of action. He was also inefficient and didn't contribute well in other areas of the game, which left him with a poor fantasy total. He should bounce back sometime in the near future.
Jabari Smith Jr. scored 21 points (8-16 FG, 3-7 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds, two assists and three blocks in the Rockets 126-119 win over the Pacers.
Fantasy Impact
Smith continues to produce as a starter for Houston. He posted his fifth double-double of December with two days to go.
Jabari Smith Jr. posted a near double-double for the Rockets Thursday night, grabbing seven rebounds and chipping in 16 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3PT, 2-2 FT) while also blocking one shot and recording two steals in a 119-96 win over the Lakers.
Fantasy Impact
Smith Jr. continues a solid stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with one or more rebounds and 12 or more points in each of his last five games. The forward continues to offer head coach Ime Udoka one of many reliable options as part of an explosive Houston starting five, averaging 15.7 points and 6.8 rebounds per game to go along with a usage rate of 18.0% so far this season.
Jabari Smith Jr. recorded his fourth consecutive double-double in Saturday's 115-101 win over the Denver Nuggets, finishing with 22 points (8-14 FG, 5-11 3PT, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block.
Fantasy Impact
Smith matched a season-high with five three-pointers while posting at least 10 rebounds for the fourth straight game. He has been outstanding recently, averaging 18 points, 10 rebounds and three assists over his past five games.
