Christian Wood Dominates With Big Double-Double
3 years agoHouston Rockets power forward/center Christian Wood scored 33 points and secured 16 rebounds for his 10th double-double of the season during a 146-143 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday. The 26-year-old went 13-for-19 from the field, including 2-for-3 behind the arc, and 5-for-7 from the line. The UNLV product also added three assists and two blocks across 41 minutes. The performance was Wood's second 30-plus scoring outing of the season, as he is averaging 16.4 points per game. Wood has seen a dip in scoring this season after averaging 21 points last year, but is averaging a career-high 11.3 boards. The big man is also shooting 46.1% from the field, a low number for a power forward/center, and an ugly 56.3% from the line. Wood is fantasy relevant and carries additional value in double-double leagues, but he doesn't provide a ton of value outside of points and boards.
