Brooks ended Tuesday's 117-111 overtime win over the Timberwolves with 22 points (8-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 41 minutes.

Despite starting every game for the Rockets so far, Brooks has managed modest averages of just 13.1 points and 2.2 three-pointers per game. Known as a defensive stopper, Brooks' abilities have not translated to production, as he is currently delivering just 0.6 steals per game.
