Top Jabari Smith News

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Efficient shooting in loss

    Smith (groin) accumulated 11 points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one block and one steal across 25 minutes during Sunday's 95-85 loss to the Warriors in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Smith didn't light up the scoreboard during his time on the court, but he was efficient with his limited opportunities and ended up pacing the Houston bench in minutes. The Rockets shot just 20.7 percent from downtown as a team in Game 1, so head coach Ime Udoka could look to open up more minutes for Smith in Game 2 if he wants to get an extra perimeter threat on the court.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Good to go for Game 1

    Smith (groin) is not listed on the injury report for Sunday's matchup with the Warriors in Game 1 of the first-round playoff series.

    Smith missed the final three games of the regular season due to left groin soreness, but he's not expected to be operating with any restrictions as the Rockets open their postseason run. After returning from a right hand fracture following the All-Star break, Smith averaged 12.7 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers and 1.1 assists in 29.0 minutes per game over his final 24 appearances.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Ready to face Denver

    Smith (groin) is not on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

    The Rockets rested their regular rotation players in the last two contests, but that won't be the case Sunday because this is the final chance the Rockets will have to log competitive minutes until the playoffs start April 19. As such, Smith should see his regular workload in the frontcourt, though he's expected to come off the bench, as that's been the case in recent weeks. He's started in just six of his 24 appearances since the All-Star break.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Won't play Sunday

    Smith (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

    Smith will miss a third straight game Sunday due to left groin soreness. Houston will likely lean on Tari Eason and Jeff Green to help shoulder the load in the frontcourt.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Will be sidelined Friday

    Smith (groin) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Lakers.

    Smith has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss a second straight game. It's unclear if he'll return to action for Sunday's regular-season finale, as the Rockets already have the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference locked up. In Smith's absence, Cam Whitmore is a candidate for increased usage.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Questionable against LAL

    Smith (groin) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers.

    Smith missed Wednesday's win against the Clippers due to a groin injury but has a chance to play Friday. The third-year forward is averaging 12.2 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game while shooting 43.8 percent from the floor and 35.4 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Ruled out vs. LAC

    Smith (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Smith is coming off a near double-double in Sunday's win against the Warriors but will watch from the sideline Wednesday in Los Angeles. Houston is already in playoff mode, with the team's priority being the health of its star players, which means Tari Eason, Jeff Green and Jae'Sean Tate will likely see more minutes on the floor.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Iffy to face LAC

    Smith is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers due to left groin soreness.

    The left groin injury is a new concern for Smith, who hasn't missed a game since Feb. 13. If the 21-year-old is sidelined against Los Angeles, Tari Eason and Jae'Sean Tate are candidates for a bump in minutes.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Good to go Sunday

    Smith (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Smith will shake off a questionable tag Sunday due to a sprained right ankle. The 21-year-old big man has played at least 26 minutes off the bench in six straight games, averaging 12.8 points, 10.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 28.8 minutes per contest.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Questionable to play Sunday

    Smith is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors due to a right ankle sprain.

    A decision on Smith's status will be made closer to Sunday's 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff. However, he's not expected to play a big role in the rotation even if he does suit up, as Tari Eason is expected to start at power forward, meaning Smith would be limited to a bench role.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Double-double off bench in rout

    Smith closed Wednesday's 143-105 win over Utah with 15 points (6-16 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 14 rebounds and two assists over 27 minutes.

    The third-year forward led Houston's second unit in minutes, points and boards as he recorded his eighth double-double of the season. Three of them have come in his last four appearances, and Smith has scored in double digits in 10 of the last 11 games (one start), a span in which he's averaging 14.0 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.8 threes, 1.4 assists and 0.8 steals in 27.2 minutes a contest.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Double-doubles in loss

    Smith posted 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Monday's 104-98 loss to the Lakers.

    Smith recorded his seventh double-double of the campaign Monday. Although he has a sizable role off the Houston bench, he's been outside the top-100 in nine-category formats for the past couple of weeks. In his last seven games, Smith produced averages of 12.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.9 steals and 1.7 three-pointers.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Productive off bench

    Smith contributed 17 points (5-12 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 121-114 victory over the Hawks.

    Although Smith has seen 28.4 minutes across 14 March appearances, his fantasy appeal has left a lot to be desired. During that span, Smith has been outside the top-150 in nine-category formats with 13.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.7 steals, 0.6 blocks and 1.9 three-pointers.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Scores season-high 30 points

    Smith posted 30 points (11-17 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Monday's 144-137 overtime victory over the 76ers.

    Smith has been alternating between the starting lineup and a bench role since mid-February, and it's undeniable that this was his best game of the season -- not only off the bench but in general since he established a new season-high mark in scoring. The lack of consistency in his role limits Smith's upside in most fantasy formats, but he should remain a decent option, at least as a streaming alternative.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Returning to bench

    Smith isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the 76ers, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

    Smith has fluctuated between a starting and bench role since mid-February, and he'll shift yet again Monday after drawing the start Saturday against the Bulls. The Auburn product has found success as a reserve, finishing in double figures in three of his last four appearances off the bench.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Back in starting role

    Smith is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Bulls, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

    The Rockets will be without Tari Eason due to left lower leg injury management, so Smith will be promoted to the starting lineup as a result. Smith was a starter in the first months of the season but has returned to the bench after recovering from a hand injury. He's averaging 11.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game in a starting role this season.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Moving to bench role

    Smith is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Suns, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Smith will return to the bench due to the presence of Fred VanVleet (ankle) in the starting lineup. Smith has played off the bench in five of his previous 10 contests, averaging 12.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Leads charge in Monday's win

    Smith had 20 points (5-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds and one block in 32 minutes during Monday's 97-84 win over the Magic.

    With Amen Thompson (ankle) sidelined, Smith got the start, and the third-year forward led a balanced Rockets attack in scoring as four different starters supplied between 14 and 20 points. It was his best offensive showing since he dropped 21 points on the Hornets just before Christmas, and Monday's five made three-pointers tied his career high. Smith has scored in double digits in five straight games (three starts), averaging 14.6 points, 6.8 boards and 2.4 threes over that stretch.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Drops 16 off bench Thursday

    Smith racked up 16 points (6-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 28 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 109-97 win over the Pelicans.

    After starting the last two contests, Smith shifted back to the second unit Thursday but came through with his best scoring performance in eight games since returning from a fractured left hand after the All-Star break. The third-year forward is averaging 10.5 points, 7.3 boards and 1.5 threes in 30.6 minutes since rejoining the lineup, and he'll likely continue floating between the starting five and the bench as the Rockets try to find the best spot for him in the rotation.
