Alperen Şengün DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (back) will play on Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns. Troubled by back spasms, Sengun logged only three minutes on Sunday against the Toronto Raptors, and the team initially listed him as questionable for Wednesday's matchup. On Saturday against the Dallas Mavericks, Sengun recorded his fourth 30-point game of the season, and his recent performances include a 20-20 outing, showing that the Turkish big man has been in good form overall lately.

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (back) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The versatile big man was limited to only three minutes due to back spasms against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday. He is reportedly feeling better and will test out his back on Wednesday to decide if he can play against the Suns. Sengun also missed some time at the beginning of the month, with Steven Adams stepping in for him in the starting lineup. Adams averaged 11.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks as a starter. Jock Landale and Jeff Green might get a little more playing time as well if Sengun is unable to play on Wednesday night.

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (calf) will be back in action against the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday. After missing three games due to a calf contusion, Sengun received a probable designation on the injury report earlier today and has now officially been cleared for action. The Turkish big man returns in a favorable matchup, as Brooklyn allows the eighth-most fantasy points per game to opposing centers. With Fred VanVleet (ankle) out of the lineup, Sengun may even have a bit more offensive duties.

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the New York Knicks. The versatile big man has been downgraded from questionable to out as a left calf contusion continues to keep Sengun off the court. With Fred VanVleet (ankle) also sidelined, the Rockets will be without two starters. Tari Eason and Jae'Sean Tate will be promoted to the first unit. This gives both players additional fantasy value. Eason is the better fantasy target, as he's averaging 11.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.9 steals for the season.

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (calf) is questionable for Monday's game in New York. Sengun was recently named an All-Star, with the 22-year-old averaging 19.1 points, 10.4 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.3 steals during the 2024-25 campaign. He's missed the last two games with a calf contusion. But if Sengun can't get on the floor against the Knicks, Steven Adams, averaging 11.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, and 1.0 steals in two starts this season, will remain a viable streaming option.
