• Rockets' Steven Adams: Struggles with shot

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Adams logged six points (2-10 FG, 2-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Thursday's 133-128 overtime loss to the Pelicans. Adams had a tough showing from the field, but he continues to be an elite source of rebounds with a sprinkle of defensive stats. Across 20 appearances, the center holds averages of 6.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.7 blocks in 21.6 minutes per contest. That has him positioned just inside the top-200 players for per-game value in nine-category formats.

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Adams finished with four points (2-4 FG), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 117-98 win over Phoenix. Adams moved into the starting lineup for the fifth time this season, replacing Alperen Sengun, who was ruled out due to illness. As usual, Adams filled in admirably, including recording a season-high four combined steals and blocks. Sengun is unlikely to miss a significant amount of time, meaning Adams should be viewed as nothing more than a streaming option for those needing rebounds.
