Fantasy Impact: The Rockets whole back court struggled from the floor between Green and Fred VanVleet. They'll look to bounce back on Sunday against the Clippers.

Fred VanVleet scored 13 points (5-16 FG, 3-10 3PT) to go along with four rebounds, five assists, one steal and two blocks in the Rockets 99-93 loss against the Warriors.

Alperen Sengun scored 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-1 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go along with eight rebounds, five assists and two steals in the Rockets 99-93 loss against the Warriors.

Fantasy Impact: Sengun led Houston in scoring in what was a quiet game on the offensive side for the whole team. He remains a steady source of points and rebounds for fantasy managers.

Dillon Brooks scored 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-8 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with three rebounds, one assist and one steal in the Rockets 99-93 loss against the Warriors.

Fantasy Impact: Brooks dealt with some foul trouble early in the game. He struggled from deep on the night and remains a player who is more valuable from a real life standpoint than from a fantasy perspective.

Fantasy Impact: Eason recently entered the NBA's concussion protocols and will be out for Thursday's game as a result. It seems likely that he will miss more time beyond this game, as it usually takes a little while for the league to fully clear players in the protocols. Look for Jae'Sean Tate to possibly sneak into Houston's rotation while Eason is sidelined.

Jabari Smith Jr. scored 15 points (6-15 FG, 3-9 3PT) to go along with 14 rebounds and three blocks in the Rockets 119-116 win over the Thunder.

Fantasy Impact: Smith recorded his first double-double since November 15, but he has grabbed at least seven rebounds in four of his past six games and has recorded multiple blocks in four straight games. He played a season-high 40 minutes in the win.

Amen Thompson led the second unit for the Rockets Tuesday night, scoring 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3PT, 2-2 FT) while also grabbing eight rebounds, blocking three shots, and recording four steals in a 117-111 win over the Timberwolves.

Fantasy Impact: Thompson continues a steady stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with at least 10 points and seven rebounds in four of the last five games. The 21-year-old has offered difference-making output on the floor off of the Houston bench, averaging 11.5 points and 6.7 rebounds per game to go along with a usage rate of 16.8% so far this season.

Steven Adams (knee) is unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Fantasy Impact: The big man will miss another game on Tuesday due to a knee injury. It has been bothering him for the entire season so far, and it remains to be seen when he will be fully healthy. Fantasy managers should expect more work for Jock Landale against the Timberwolves.

Cam Whitmore is available for Wednesday's game against the Pacers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Whitmore is good to go after being listed as questionable. He remains off the fantasy radar.

Fantasy Impact: The big man is dealing with a shoulder injury right now, but it's not a serious issue and he is expected to play through it on Wednesday. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to get enough work to be fantasy relevant against the Clippers.

Fantasy Impact: Dante attempted to play one more year at Oregon, but he was denied an extra year of eligibility. He averaged 17 points and just under 10 rebounds per game in his final season with the Ducks. He'll likely compete in the Summer League in July with Houston.
