Dillon Brooks Fantasy Stats

According to Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle, Houston Rockets forward 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.

Houston Rockets forward 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.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Dillon Brooks (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's clash against New Orleans. He's nursing right ankle soreness. Brooks' injury has come at a bad time for the Rockets, who play three games in four nights. Amen Thompson crushed it as a starter in Brooks' place on Monday against Charlotte and should do well again in Thursday's matchup. The 21-year-old posted a double-double with 19 points and 11 rebounds on Monday, adding three assists, three blocks, and one steal to his tally.

According to Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle, Houston Rockets forward Dillon Brooks (ankle) won't play against the Hornets due to right ankle soreness. Brooks is a late scratch, as he wasn't listed on Monday's team injury report earlier. Amen Thompson could be a serviceable fantasy option with Brooks sidelined, as he will likely see more opportunities. The 21-year-old is averaging 11.8 points and 6.8 rebounds across 28 outings this season.

Houston Rockets forward Dillon Brooks (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday night's matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. Brooks is dealing with an illness. If forced to miss tonight's game it would be the first game he's missed all season. The 28-year-old is averaging 11.4 PPG and 4.0 RPG this season. His moderate offensive production won't be what's missed most, though, as Brooks' defensive presence will be the glaring issue for Houston if absent. Houston holds a 104.5 defensive rating with Brooks on the court and a 124.9 defensive rating with him off. If Brooks is unable to suit up, expect Amen Thompson to be inserted into the starting lineup with fellow forward Tari Eason also listed as questionable for tonight. Thompson is averaging 10.0 PPG and 5.9 RPG while the Rockets hold a 110.4 defensive rating with him on the floor, making him a suitable defensive replacement for Brooks.

Houston Rockets guard Dillon Brooks (knee) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He was considered probable coming into this game, but will officially be active now. Brooks struggled during the season opener as he only connected on 1-of-6 field goal attempts. The 28-year-old finished with two points and three rebounds across 31 minutes of action. Brooks has some deep league value, but isn't worth rostering in most fantasy formats right now.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Dillon Brooks (oblique) will miss his seventh consecutive game on Monday as he's been ruled out again while dealing with a right oblique strain. Brooks suffered this injury back on December 26 in a game against the Indiana Pacers and hasn't been able to play since. In that span, the Rockets have gone 3-3 so far and have a noticeable gap in their defense. Brooks has been a solid contributor in deeper fantasy leagues despite seeing his numbers drop in scoring this year. While he's been on the sidelines, Jae'Sean Tate has taken over the starting spot and Jeff Green has seen a big chunk of playing time off of the bench. Cam Whitmore has seen some added minutes as well, but the former two names have been better streaming options thus far.

Houston Rockets forward Dillon Brooks (oblique) has been ruled out on Friday and will miss his fifth game in a row while dealing with a right oblique strain. The defensive specialist has been one of those players whose impact is felt beyond the box score this season. His scoring output and assist numbers may have both decreased, but his efficiency has gotten better and he's helped the Rockets get to a 17-15 record while he takes on the hardest defensive assignment on the other team. While he remains on the sidelines, Jae'Sean Tate should stay in the starting lineup while he receives around 30 minutes a night. Jeff Green and Cam Whitmore have seen some extra minutes as well, but Tate would be the most consistent streaming option to choose.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Dillon Brooks (oblique) will sit out a fourth consecutive game on Wednesday versus Brooklyn. Brooks doesn't have a clear timetable for his return, but Rockets head coach Ime Udoka has said that the defensive pest isn't dealing with a long-term issue. Jae'Sean Tate has joined the starters in Brooks' absence. Following a couple of below-par performances, Tate hit his stride with a 16-point effort across 26 minutes last time out against Detroit, and a meeting with another defensively-challenged team appears to be a solid spot for him to turn in a good performance.

Houston Rockets forward Dillon Brooks (oblique) remains out on Monday against the visiting Detroit Pistons. The 27-year-old is battling an oblique strain, so he'll now miss his third consecutive contest. He'll likely miss more time moving ahead, although head coach Ime Udoka couldn't say how long he'd stay on the shelf. Brooks has averaged 13.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in his first season in Houston. However, he's shooting a career-high 40.8% from behind the arc. But until Brooks is healthy, Jae'Sean Tate could remain in the lineup. Unfortunately, Tate has averaged just 5.5 points in two starts this year, which won't do anything to benefit fantasy managers.
