Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Struggles in loss to San Antonio
Alperen Sengun produced six points (2-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals over 22 minutes during Saturday's 109-106 loss to the Spurs.Sengun couldn't get anything going down low and had a rough time trying to get past Victor Wembanyama, who found a way to limit Sengun's impact considerably on both ends of the court. Sengun had recorded double-doubles in his previous two outings this season, however, and one subpar outing isn't going to worry fantasy managers who trusted him in standard drafts. He should remain a capable producer for the Houston Rockets due to his elite ability to fill the stat sheet.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Another double-double Friday
Alperen Sengun amassed 16 points (5-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 128-108 win over the Grizzlies.Sengun has logged a double-double in each of the first two games of the regular season, and he combined with Jabari Smith for 31 of Houston's 41 rebounds Friday. Sengun's ability to impact the game in various ways earned him a five-year, $185 million extension Monday, and early on, it appears that contract for the 2021 first-round pick could be a bargain for the Houston Rockets. Sengun will be in for a tough challenge against Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs on Saturday.
