Top Rockets News

  • Rockets' Dillon Brooks: Fouls out in Game 3

    Brooks notched 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 28 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 104-93 loss to the Warriors in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Brooks was limited to just 28 minutes in Game 3 after picking up four fouls in the first half. He was effective while on the floor and was the only Rockets starter not to finish with a negative point-differential before fouling out at the 3:47 mark in the fourth quarter. Brooks has failed to play more than 30 minutes in each of his last two games, and the Rockets will need the veteran forward to stay out of foul trouble in Game 4 on Monday to help tie the series at two games apiece.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Double-double in Game 3 loss

    Sengun amassed 15 points (7-18 FG, 1-6 FT), 11 rebounds and four assists over 33 minutes during Saturday's 104-93 loss to the Warriors in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Sengun finished Saturday's game as the Rockets' leading rebounder and second in points behind Fred VanVleet (17). It was Sengun's second-straight double-double, though he missed all but one of his attempts from the charity stripe. He has averaged 19.3 points, 12.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.7 steals in 35.4 minutes over the first three games of the series.

  • Rockets' Fred VanVleet: Team-high 17 points in Game 3

    VanVleet recorded 17 points (5-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Saturday's 104-93 loss to the Warriors in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    VanVleet led the Rockets in scoring despite not having the most efficient night from the field. The veteran point guard has connected on just 26.8 percent of his field-goal attempts this series (including 20.7 percent from three on 9.7 3PA/G). VanVleet and Jalen Green (nine points) will need to be better offensively in Game 4 on Monday in order to tie the series before heading back to Houston on Wednesday.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: No timetable for return

    Tate (ankle) isn't close to returning to action and doesn't have a timetable to step back into the hardwood, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Tate has yet to play in the postseason, and it seems the forward isn't particularly close to returning from a right ankle injury. He might not be available to return during the series against the Warriors, and it's uncertain when he'll be able to play. However, Tate isn't expected to have a lot of fantasy upside even if deemed fit.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Another absence coming

    Tate (ankle) won't play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Warriors.

    Tate is set to miss his fifth straight contest Saturday due to a right ankle injury. Tate's next chance to suit up is Monday's Game 4 against Golden State.

  • Rockets' Jock Landale: Won't play Saturday

    Landale (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Warriors.

    Landale was able to go through drills during Friday's practice, though he's still set to miss his third straight outing due to a right knee contusion. His next chance to suit up will come in Game 4 against the Warriors on Monday.

  • Rockets' Jock Landale: Likely out for Game 3

    Landale (knee) was seen going through drills and moving well but is expected to remain out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Warriors, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Landale has missed the first two games of the playoffs and is expected to remain out Saturday due to a right knee injury. However, Landale's participation in drills could indicate that he is nearing a return to action.

  • Rockets' Fred VanVleet: Struggles with shot in win

    VanVleet recorded seven points (2-8 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    VanVleet hasn't been able to get back to form offensively as of late, as he failed to crack double digits Wednesday despite playing a game-high 42 minutes. However, the Rockets followed the lead of Jalen Green, who scored a game-high 38 points, to bounce back from a Game 1 loss at home before the series shifts to San Francisco for the next two games.

  • Rockets' Amen Thompson: Muted performance in win

    Thompson notched 11 points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and three assists in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 victory over Golden State in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Thompson has been one of the best all-around players for the Rockets during the 2024-25 campaign, but he struggled to have a significant impact in Game 2, finishing with a less-than-stellar stat line. The rising star usually makes his presence felt defensively, which didn't happen Wednesday. However, Houston was still able to come out on top ahead of the series shifting to San Francisco for the next two games.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Notches 14 points

    Eason had 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 victory over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    This game got heated at times, and at one point, Eason threw a towel at the Warriors when both teams converged into a huddle. As for the actual game, Eason was far more effective Wednesday after being held to six points on 3-of-10 shooting in Game 1. This series will shift to Golden State on Saturday with the teams tied 1-1.

  • Rockets' Dillon Brooks: Efficient shooting in win

    Brooks provided 16 points (6-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 victory over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Brooks was one of five players who scored in double figures for Houston on Wednesday. The defensive-minded forward was able to bounce back from a forgettable performance in Game 1, shooting 50 percent from the field, which helped propel his team to victory. The series is now shifting to San Francisco for the next two games, with many questions surrounding the status of Warriors star Jimmy Butler (pelvis) after a nasty fall that resulted in him missing all but eight minutes of Game 2.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Big double-double Wednesday

    Sengun racked up 17 points (6-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 16 rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    While Jalen Green carried the scoring load for Houston, Sengun dominated the glass, as no Golden State player managed more than five rebounds. The fourth-year center has had a strong start to his postseason, averaging 21.5 points, 12.5 boards, 4.0 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.0 threes through the first two games of the series, and Sengun will take plenty of momentum into Game 3 on Saturday.

  • Rockets' Jalen Green: Erupts for game-high 38 in win

    Green ended with 38 points (13-25 FG, 8-18 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, six assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    The fourth-year guard led all scorers on the night by a wide margin -- Stephen Curry paced the Warriors with 20 points, while no other Rocket managed more than 17. It was a stunning breakout for Green, who had scored in single digits in each of his prior four games while shooting 20.5 percent from the floor and 18.2 percent from beyond the arc, including just seven points in 31 minutes during his postseason debut Sunday. Green's eight made threes tied his career single-game high.
