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

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.
