Sheppard finished with 27 points (9-15 FG, 9-14 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 victory over the Bucks.

Sheppard got the start Wednesday after coming off the bench against the Knicks on Tuesday during the first leg of a back-to-back set. Tari Eason moved to the bench to make room for Sheppard, who carried the Rockets offensively alongside Alperen Sengun. This 27-point output was Sheppard's second straight game with at least 20 points, and he's hit this line in three of the Rockets' last seven contests. Since the All-Star break, Sheppard has been alternating between the first unit and the bench, averaging 16.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.7 steals per game.
