Fred VanVleet Listed As Out Thursday Against New Orleans
26 mins agoRockets guard Fred VanVleet will miss his third straight game on Thursday due to an ankle injury. He missed 11 games in February with the same issue and returned for one game on March 1 against the Kings. He played 35 minutes but only had three points to go with five assists and five rebounds. While he has been out, Amen Thompson has stepped up and become a fantasy force, and with FVV still sidelined, he'll continue to be very involved in a favorable matchup Thursday against the Pelicans. Reed Sheppard has gotten more minutes in the last two games for the Rockets and could stay more involved than Aaron Holiday as a backup point guard.
