Dillon Brooks's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

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.
