Tari Eason - Used sparingly in Game 4 Eason closed with three points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 17 minutes during Monday's 109-106 loss to the Warriors in Game 4...
Impact Eason's minutes continue to trend in the wrong direction, as he's seen minutes in the teens in two straight contests with Houston relying heavily on Dillon Brooks and Amen Thompson on the wings. Eason has struggled overall, however, shooting 41.4 percent from the field and 25.0 percent from beyond the arc with 7.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, 1.0 steals and 0.8 three-pointers.

Jalen Green - Struggles yet again Green recorded eight points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 25 minutes during Monday's 109-106 loss to the Warriors in Game 4 of the first round of th...
Impact Apart from his 38-point outburst in Game 2, Green has been held to single-digit points in every other game of this series. Overall, he's shooting 39.0 percent from the field and 31.3 percent from beyond the arc with 15.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.5 three-pointers. It's hard to imagine the Rockets dialing him back, however.

Jabari Smith Jr. - Scores six points in loss Smith closed with six points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one block over 22 minutes during Monday's 109-106 loss to the Warriors in Game 4 of the firs...
Impact Although Smith has shot the ball really well in this series with a 57.9 percent mark from the field and 54.5 percent from beyond the arc, his usage and workload are both down.Through four games, he's seeing 24.3 minutes with 8.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1.5 three-pointers. The Rockets seem content rolling with Dillon Brooks and Amen Thompson.

Amen Thompson - Just misses double-double in loss Thompson finished with 17 points (7-12 FG, 3-5 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Monday's 109-106 loss to the Warriors in Game 4 of the first rou...
Impact After three lackluster scoring efforts to begin his first career playoff run, Thompson stepped up his production Monday. The second-year wing is averaging 11.8 points, 6.5 boards, 3.8 assists and 1.3 combined steals and blocks through four games, and the Rockets may need something special from the fourth overall pick in the 2023 Draft if they're going to avoid elimination in Game 5 on Wednesday.

Fred VanVleet - Drains eight treys Monday VanVleet produced 25 points (8-13 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and six assists over 40 minutes during Monday's 109-106 loss to the Warriors in Game 4 of the first round of t...
Impact It was a huge night from beyond the arc for the veteran point guard, but VanVleet needed one more three -- his shot for a tie at the final buzzer came up just short. It was his best scoring performance of the playoffs so far, and through four games he's averaging 14.8 points, 4.5 assists, 3.5 threes, 3.3 boards and 1.3 steals while playing at least 40 minutes each contest. VanVleet will try to help the Rockets stave off elimination on their home court in Game 5 on Wednesday.

Alperen Sengün - Big double-double in Monday's loss Sengun totaled a game-high 31 points (12-28 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 7-10 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and two steals over 42 minutes during Monday's 109-106 loss to the Warriors in Game 4 o...
Impact It was Sengun's best scoring performance so far this postseason, but it wasn't enough to stop a second-half comeback from Golden State. The fourth-year center is averaging 22.3 points, 11.5 boards, 4.3 assists and 1.8 steals through the first four games of the series, and Sengun may need to come up big again in Game 5 on Wednesday if the Rockets are going to avoid elimination.
