Jae'Sean Tate Fantasy Stats

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (knee) has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 MCL sprain and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, putting him on track for an extended absence. The 30-year-old reserve had already fallen out of the fantasy mix, averaging just 8.4 minutes with a limited 13.4 usage rate, so his injury carries minimal impact in standard leagues. Josh Okogie and Dorian Finney-Smith should absorb available wing minutes, though neither has shown reliable production. Finney-Smith logged three points and four rebounds in 20 minutes last game, keeping this a low-priority fantasy situation.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (wrist) has been tagged as questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Los Angeles Lakers. He is nursing a left wrist contusion ahead of the Christmas Day matchup. Tate hasn't had a regular role in the rotation, making his status irrelevant from a fantasy perspective. The 30-year-old veteran has averaged 3.0 points and 1.6 rebounds in 8.2 minutes this season. Going forward, Tate may have even a tougher time getting minutes on this Rockets squad, as Dorian Finney-Smith has been upgraded to questionable on the injury report and is closing in on his season debut.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (ankle) is questionable to return on Friday after missing opening night. Tate played a limited role last season, averaging just 11.3 minutes per game with 3.6 points, and 2.3 rebounds. While he won't likely see a heavy minute share, Tate could provide valuable depth in the absence of Dorian Finney-Smith on Friday. The Rockets dropped their double overtime opener to the Thunder, and will look to bounce back against the Pistons on Friday. Tate should be monitored closely, but will need to garner an increased minute load to be rostered in most fantasy formats.

The Houston Rockets are reportedly interested in bringing back Jae'Sean Tate, Aaron Holiday, and Jeff Green. All three players are free agents, but the Rockets want to re-sign all three of them. None of them hold much fantasy value, but are valuable pieces off the bench. Last season, Tate saw a career-low 11.3 minutes per game as he averaged 3.6 points and 2.2 rebounds across 52 games. All of them were playing minutes in the teens, but Tate is probably the best of the trio. It sounds like the Rockets want to bring everyone back and try again with newly acquired Kevin Durant.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (ankle) will remain unavailable on Wednesday night against the Golden State Warriors. He has yet to play in the postseason due to a right ankle impingement. Houston faces elimination on Wednesday, making it possible that Tate will not see any playoff action this year. He is currently the only absentee for the Rockets after Jock Landale returned to the lineup for Monday's Game 4. Despite his addition, Rockets head coach Ime Udoka still ran an eight-man rotation, which includes Steven Adams, Jabari Smith Jr., and Tari Eason off the bench.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Golden State Warriors. The versatile veteran will be sidelined for a fifth consecutive game due to an ankle injury. Tate averaged only 11.3 minutes per game over 52 regular-season contests and is not expected to have a regular role in the rotation during the playoffs. Rockets head coach Ime Udoka has mainly relied on Jabari Smith Jr., Tari Eason, and Steven Adams to generate production off the bench.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (ankle) will remain sidelined for Game 2 against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. The 29-year-old is nursing an ankle injury, which took him out of action with two games to go in the regular season. Tate is a versatile player who can contribute to his team in several areas, but he has not seen much playing time this term. During the regular season, Tate averaged 3.6 points and 2.3 rebounds in 11.3 minutes.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. He might have to sit out a second straight game due to back spasms. This season, Tate has struggled to earn a meaningful role in the rotation, so his absence does not have a big impact. Jeff Green, Tari Eason, and Cam Whitmore may pick up a bit of extra work off the bench with Tate out of the lineup.

Houston Rockets guard/forward Jae'Sean Tate (wrist) has been listed as questionable on Friday for their game against the Charlotte Hornets. Tate was forced to miss their last contest against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday while dealing with this left wrist strain, and it doesn't seem to be fully healed just yet. Regardless of injury status, Tate has been seeing his fewest minutes per contest of his career this year and that has made his fantasy value very limited. If he does play, he'll likely see around 15-17 minutes which wouldn't make him useful in most fantasy leagues. If he has to sit out another game, however, Jeff Green, Amen Thompson, and Cam Whitmore should all see some extra minutes.

Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate (illness) missed Friday's game along with Amen Thompson (illness) but it looks like his illness isn't as severe as the rookie's. He was officially upgraded to active on Sunday and will be on the court against the Milwaukee Bucks. Tate will probably take some minutes and fantasy value away from Aaron Holiday and Jeff Green. He will likely receive around 20-to-25 minutes as usual and could be a solid option in deep nine-category leagues.
