Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Staying with Houston
Aaron Holiday and the Houston Rockets agreed to a two-year, $10 million contract Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.Holiday was one of the most coveted backup point guards on the market for contenders, so the Rockets will be thrilled to retain his services. In 78 appearances last season, Holiday averaged 6.6 points, 1.8 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 1.1 three-pointers in 16.3 minutes per game.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Productive off bench Wednesday
Aaron Holiday finished with 19 points (7-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 30 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 121-113 loss to the Grizzlies.The 27-year-old saw an increased role in the Houston Rockets' backcourt once again with Fred VanVleet (thigh) sidelined, and Holiday produced his best scoring effort since he dropped 22 on the Thunder back on Dec. 6. He's scored in double digits in four straight games, his longest streak of the season, and Holiday is averaging 16.8 points, 3.0 assists, 3.0 threes and 2.3 boards during that stretch while shooting 52.0 percent from the floor and 44.4 percent (12-for-27) from beyond the arc. His run of fantasy relevance should come to an end once VanVleet is ready to return, however.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Scores in double digits Friday
Aaron Holiday totaled 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Friday's 107-104 loss to the Raptors.The Houston Rockets didn't have their best offensive showing Friday, but Holiday was one of several role players who stepped their game up off the bench. The lack of consistency is not surprising given the nature of his second-unit role, but under that same context, it's worth noting Holiday has scored in double digits in four of his last nine appearances.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Rotational role Saturday
Aaron Holiday ended with six points (3-6 FG), three rebounds and one assist over 18 minutes during Saturday's 106-104 loss to the Nets.Even with Jabari Smith (ankle) and Tari Eason (lower leg) unavailable, Holiday wasn't overly incorporated into the action Saturday, with Cam Whitmore's shooting and Amen Thompson's defense providing more utility for coach Ime Udoka. Holiday best profiles as a streaming candidate when the Houston Rockets' backcourt is shorthanded.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Unproductive in loss
Aaron Holiday contributed five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 19 minutes during Friday's 122-95 loss to the Timberwolves.Holiday failed to deliver meaningful production despite playing at least 15 minutes for the ninth time in the past 10 games. He has scored a combined 12 points across the last four games, adding 12 assists and two steals. Outside of the deepest formats, Holiday is not someone who should be viewed as a viable fantasy target.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Logs 26 mimutes in loss
Aaron Holiday logged eight points (3-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt) and two rebounds across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 134-127 loss to the Hawks.Holiday played more than 20 minutes for just the seventh time this season, sticking on the floor to close the game. Although the playing time is encouraging, he failed to make the most of his opportunity, at least from a production standpoint. Outside of being an occasional streaming option, Holiday has very little fantasy value.

Rockets' Aaron Holiday: Drops season-high 22 points
Aaron Holiday accumulated 22 points (8-13 FG, 6-7 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 110-101 victory over the Thunder.Holiday exploded off the bench, torching the Thunder for a season-high 22 points in 27 minutes. While this was certainly a fantastic performance, managers should not be fooled. Before Wednesday, he had scored in double digits only three times all season. Outside of being a speculative streaming option, Holiday has little sustainable fantasy value.
