Dillon Brooks Contributes 22 Points With Two Steals
Dillon Brooks bounced back from an efficiency standpoint during Sunday's win over Sacramento. Brooks netted 22 points on 50 percent shooting from the field, filling out his line with two rebounds, two assists, two steals, and a triple in 29 minutes. The 25-year-old has been up-and-down as a shooter this season, though he continues to be a steady source of three-pointers and steals in deeper leagues. Brooks gets a good upcoming matchup on Tuesday against the Pelicans, who have allowed a league-high 4.2 made three-pointers to opposing two-guards.

Dillon Brooks Questionable With Knee Injury On Monday
Dillon Brooks (knee) has been listed as questionable for the Monday night matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a knee contusion. Brooks was able to clock 30 minutes on the court in their last game on Saturday, but he's now one of three starters considered questionable while Fred VanVleet (ankle) has been ruled out. If Brooks is unable to suit up, Jabari Smith Jr. may move into the starting five while Cam Whitmore could see some minutes after getting a DNP-CD in their last game. Smith registered five points, seven rebounds, and one block on Saturday against the Sacramento Kings.

Fred VanVleet (ankle), who is close to returning to the starting lineup, may fill his spot in the starting lineup. Cam Whitmore and Tari Eason (leg) are also potential options to move into the first unit, with the latter having been removed from the injury report.

Dillon Brooks Doesn't Practice On Tuesday
Dillon Brooks (personal) didn't practice on Tuesday. Per Rockets coach Ime Udoka, everyone practiced today except Brooks, who had a personal matter. Hopefully, the 28-year-old doesn't miss any games, as he posted 22 points, four rebounds, and one block in 40 minutes during Sunday's 104-100 loss to the Heat after sitting out three consecutive contests due to a right ankle effusion.

Dillon Brooks Sidelined Again On Friday Night
Dillon Brooks (ankle) won't play in Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, marking his third-consecutive absence. The 28-year-old has had a decent season, averaging 13.6 points. However, his abilities on the defensive end are what Houston have missed the most. With Tari Eason (leg) questionable, the team could look to Cam Whitmore to take on some minutes from off the bench. Whitemore is coming off a potent outing, scoring 27 points and shooting 4-for-8 from behind the arc in Thursday's win over the New Orleans Pelicans.
