Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Coming off bench
Sheppard isn't part of the starting five for Wednesday's game against Sacramento, Michael C. Wright of ESPN.com reports.
Sheppard's streak of four consecutive starts will come to an end Wednesday, as he'll be replaced by Josh Okogie in the first unit. During the four-game stretch, Sheppard averaged 14.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks across 29.5 minutes.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Busy on defense against Jazz
Sheppard totaled nine points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, two blocks and four steals in 31 minutes during Sunday's 129-101 win over Utah.
Making his third straight start, Sheppard tied his season high in both steals and blocks in a strong defensive effort. The second-year guard is averaging 15.7 points, 5.3 boards, 4.7 assists, 2.0 threes, 2.7 steals and 1.3 blocks since moving into the starting five in place of Steven Adams, as Houston goes with a smaller lineup. Considering the team has won three straight road games with that alignment, Sheppard could stick in his current role for a while.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Erupts for career-high 31 in win
Sheppard registered 31 points (12-25 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 104-100 victory over Golden State.
With Kevin Durant (personal) unavailable for a second straight game, Sheppard made his second start of the season and delivered a new career scoring high. The 21-year-old guard is taking a massive step forward in his second NBA season, scoring in double digits in nine of the last 10 games while averaging 17.1 points, 3.3 assists, 3.2 threes, 2.6 boards and 2.1 steals while shooting 53.8 percent from the floor and 47.1 percent from long distance.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Starting Monday
Sheppard will start Monday's game against the Suns, Matt Young of the Houston Chronicle reports.
With Kevin Durant (personal) sidelined, Sheppard will get the starting nod for the first time this season. The second-year guard has averaged 17.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.0 steals in 28.0 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Scores season-high 27 points
Sheppard recorded 27 points (9-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Friday's 112-109 loss to the Nuggets.
Sheppard tallied double digits for the eighth straight game, scoring a season-high 27 points in what was also a season-high 37 minutes. After a modest start to the season, it appears as though Sheppard is earning the trust of the coaching staff. He started the second half Friday, an encouraging sign moving forward. Managers should feel relatively safe holding him in all formats.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Hits two three-pointers in win
Sheppard ended with 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 114-104 victory over the Cavaliers.
Sheppard extended his streak of hitting multiple three-pointers to seven, averaging 15.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.1 steals, 0.4 blocks and 3.1 threes on a 51.2 percent clip in that span. While Sheppard lacks the offensive volume to be an elite fantasy asset, his efficiency has been amazing, and he will continue to be one of Houston's premier scoring options off the bench.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Efficient 16 points off bench
Sheppard registered 16 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 117-113 overtime victory over Orlando.
Sheppard has now notched double digits in scoring in six straight games and seven of his last eight. The second-year guard is back on the rise after a relatively sluggish start to the season, and he warrants consideration in most fantasy formats. Over his last six outings, Sheppard has averaged 15.7 points, 2.8 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 steals in 25.3 minutes per contest.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Efficient in win over Washington
Sheppard produced 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 135-112 victory over the Wizards.
The 21-point output was a season-high mark for Sheppard, who also extended his double-digit scoring run to four games while surpassing the 15-point plateau in the last three. Sheppard has yet to start a game in 2025-26, but he doesn't need to do it to remain productive due to his sizable role off the bench. Sheppard is averaging 13.7 points, 1.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game since the beginning of November.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Ties season high with 16 points
Sheppard ended with 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), two assists, one block and four steals over 29 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 122-115 victory over the Bucks.
The 16 points tied his season high, a mark he just reached Friday against the Spurs, and Sheppard's four steals set a new personal best for 2025-26. The second-year guard is finding a groove on the second unit, scoring at least 12 points in five of the last seven games while averaging 11.9 points, 3.4 assists, 2.6 threes, 2.1 boards and 1.1 steals in 21.1 minutes a contest.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Lean production continues
Sheppard had five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists across 17 minutes during Monday's 110-102 victory over the Mavericks.
Sheppard continues to play a limited role off the bench, having played fewer than 20 minutes in three straight games. Despite a strong preseason, it appears as though the coaching staff has little faith in him when it comes to running the offense. Across the first six games of the season, he is averaging 9.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.2 three-pointers in 20.6 minutes per contest.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Team option picked up
The Rockets exercised their 2026-27 team option for Sheppard on Friday, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Lerner described this as a formality for the Rockets, with Sheppard's option valued at $11.1 million. Through four games, Sheppard is averaging 10.0 points, 3.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.0 three-pointers.

Rockets' Reed Sheppard: Dishes out eight assists in win
Sheppard ended with 15 points (6-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt), eight assists, four rebounds and one steal in 24 minutes during Monday's 137-109 victory over the Nets.
After shooting just 27.3 percent from the field in Houston's first two regular-season games, Sheppard provided a spark off the bench and was one of seven Rockets players to score in double figures. The second-year guard also tied Amen Thompson for the team lead in assists. Sheppard has logged at least 20 minutes in all three of Houston's games so far. While the 21-year-old isn't guaranteed a starting role, he should continue to see ample playing time with Fred VanVleet (knee) on the shelf.
