Rotowire
Marjanovic registered five points (1-1 FG, 3-3 FT) across two minutes during Tuesday's 137-114 win over the Wizards.

Rotowire
Marjanovic ended Friday's 122-95 loss to Minnesota with two points (1-3 FG) and three rebounds in four minutes.
Marjanovic cracked the rotation for just the fifth time this season, playing four minutes in garbage time. Despite his novelty factor, Marjanovic is incapable of playing a significant role, so he doesn't have any fantasy value.
Marjanovic is slated to sign a one-year deal with the Rockets on Sunday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Marjanovic will return to Houston after appearing in 31 contests for the Rockets last year, averaging 3.3 points and 1.9 rebounds in 5.5 minutes per game. The veteran big man will compete with Jock Landale for backup minutes behind Alperen Sengun.

Rockets' Boban Marjanovic: Scores two points in eight minutes
Rotowire
Marjanovic registered two points (2-2 FT) and one rebound across eight minutes during Friday's 121-115 win over the Pistons.
Marjanovic sightings have been few and far between this season, although he has made three appearances over the past two weeks. It remains to be seen if he'll get more than a handful of minutes in the final four games of the campaign.
Marjanovic chipped in one rebound across two minutes during Friday's 114-112 win over the Pelicans.
Marjanovic played for the first time in almost two weeks, logging two minutes in the win. Head coach Stephen Silas opted to go with Marjanovic for the final play of the game, utilizing his size to defend the inbounds play. A deflection resulted in the Rockets holding on for a third straight victory. While this is a bit of a feel-good story, there is obviously nothing to see here from a fantasy perspective.

Rockets' Boban Marjanovic: Rejoins Houston
Rotowire
Marjanovic re-signed Monday with the Rockets after clearing waivers.
Marjanovic was waived Friday for procedural purposes after the Rockets needed to clear up roster room for their new additions following Thursday's trade deadline, but Houston was always expected to bring back the veteran center once he cleared waivers. The Rockets appear set to stick with Usman Garuba as the primary backup option at center behind starter Alperen Sengun, so Marjanovic doesn't look as though he'll be a factor in head coach Stephen Silas' rotation in most games.

Boban Marjanovic: Gets waived by Rockets
Rotowire
Marjanovic was waived by the Rockets on Thursday, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.
Marjonvic's time with the Rockets has come to an end as the team announced they're waiving the veteran center. Marjanovic saw 4.2 minutes a game in 17 games with Houston. With the center's release, the Rockets will likely finish out the remainder of the 2023 season with Usman Garuba relieving Alperen Sengun.
Marjanovic totaled four points (2-3 FG), three rebounds and one assist in six minutes during Thursday's 113-95 loss to Cleveland.
Marjanovic made a celebrity cameo in the loss, the first time he has seen action in almost two weeks. Despite his popularity amongst fans, Marjanovic simply can't foot it with the speed of today's NBA. Based on what we have seen thus far this season, there is almost no way he plays more than about eight minutes on any given night. His fantasy value is non-existent.

Rotowire
Marjanovic registered six points (3-4 FG), three rebounds and one assist over four minutes during Thursday's 129-114 loss to the Mavericks.
Marjanovic logged four garbage time minutes in the loss, basically summing up his current role for the Rockets.

Rotowire
Marjanovic closed with seven points (3-3 FG, 1-1 FT) across four minutes during Thursday's 118-109 loss to San Antonio.
Marjanovic made a rare appearance in the loss, taking to the court for just the eighth time this season. While his per-minute production can be highly intriguing, he simply isn't built to play a significant role. As this point, there is little chance he becomes fantasy relevant for any length of time, even in deeper formats.

Rockets' Boban Marjanovic: Makes rare appearance Saturday
Rotowire
Marjanovic recorded one point (0-1 FG, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across three minutes during Saturday's 129-117 loss to the Timberwolves.
Marjanovic saw action for just the fourth time this season, bringing his season total to 13 minutes. It is clear he does not fit the Rockets' timetable and is merely making up the numbers. Given he has never been able to maintain anything close to standard league value, managers can continue to ignore him.

Rockets' Boban Marjanovic: Barely plays in loss
Rotowire
Marjanovic recorded no stats in two minutes during Wednesday's 109-101 loss to the Jazz.
While Marjanovic has played in the Rockets' last three games, he hasn't played over four minutes or scored more than three points. It's hard to see Marjanovic having much fantasy value unless there are significant injuries ahead of him.
