  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Held scoreless in expanded role

    Tate didn't score (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), but managed to grab four rebounds and block a shot in 18 minutes of play in the loss to the Celtics on Friday.

    Despite being on the court for over double his average minutes this season (8.7) with Amen Thompson (suspension), Jabari Smith Jr. (hand) and Tari Eason (leg) sidelined, Tate was unable to make the most of his opportunity Friday. The veteran has seen his role in the organization steadily decrease since a solid rookie campaign and has now found himself at the tail end of a talented young wing rotation. His next chance to break into the lineup will come Sunday against the Lakers.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Not listed on injury report

    Tate (illness) isn't listed on the Rockets' injury report for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.

    Tate was a late addition to the injury report before eventually being ruled out Sunday against the Heat due to an illness. However, it appears he's past the ailment and will return to action Wednesday. The veteran forward averaged 12.1 minutes per game across seven December appearances.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Won't play Sunday

    Tate (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Heat.

    Tate was a late addition to the injury report and will be sidelined for the first time since Dec. 14. Dillon Brooks (ankle) is available, so Amen Thompson will move to the bench, though the second-year wing could remain in an elevated role with Tate out.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Dealing with illness

    Tate is questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat due to an illness.

    Tate was a late addition to the injury report, which is never a good sign. Dillon Brooks (ankle) and Tari Eason (lower leg) are also questionable for Sunday.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Available Wednesday

    Tate (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Warriors, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Tate was one of several Houston players who were listed questionable for this NBA Cup matchup, but his availability suggests he should be good to see minutes off the bench. However, injuries have limited Tate to just nine appearances and 6.2 minutes per game since the beginning of November. He's not likely to see a significant role off the bench in this contest.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Questionable to play Wednesday

    Tate is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Warriors due to a lower back injury.

    Tate has been dealing with a lower-back issue for quite some time, but he managed to suit up for Sunday's game against the Clippers, logging 18 minutes off the bench. Injuries have limited Tate to just nine appearances and 6.2 minutes per game since the beginning of November, so he's not playing enough to be worthy of fantasy consideration.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Available Sunday

    Tate (back) will play Sunday against the Clippers.

    Tate has been dealing with a lower-back issue, but the medical staff has given him the green light for Sunday's clash. He hasn't been a consistent member of the rotation, so he's unlikely to make much of an impact.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Questionable to play vs. Clips

    Tate (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Clippers, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Tate's status for Sunday's game is up in the air due to lower back pain. Even if he were sidelined, his absence wouldn't influence the Rockets' rotation all too much. Tate has been a healthy scratch in five of the last six games, and he hasn't played more than nine minutes across his nine outings.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Good to go for camp

    Tate (ankle) will be a full participant to start Houston's training camp next Tuesday, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Tate missed the final six games of the 2023-24 campaign with a right ankle sprain. He's been scrimmaging with contact since last week, so it's unlikely he will have limitations during camp. Tate finished the 2023-24 regular season with averages of 4.1 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.9 minutes across 65 appearances.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Option picked up by club

    The Rockets exercised Tate's (ankle) $7.57 million team option for 2024-25 on Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

    Houston's decision to retain Tate is somewhat surprising given that he looked to be a fringe rotation player toward the end of the 2023-24 season before he was shut down in April with a right ankle sprain. However, the 28-year-old brings value in his ability to defend multiple positions and is comfortable taking on a lower-usage role, which makes him an ideal fit next to higher-priority offensive options such as Fred VanVleet, Jalen Green, Jabari Smith and Alperen Sengun. He should be fully recovered from the ankle sprain well in advance of training camp -- if he's not healthy already -- and depending on what the complexion of the Houston roster looks like in the aftermath of the offseason, Tate could resurface as a more consistent part of head coach Ime Udoka's rotation.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Shut down for rest of season

    Head coach Ime Udoka said Tuesday that Tate (ankle) is unlikely to play again this season, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.

    Tate has already been ruled out for the third straight game Tuesday against the Magic due to a right ankle sprain and is now being shut down for the rest of the season, with Houston eliminated from playoff contention. The 28-year-old forward will likely end the 2023-24 campaign averaging 4.1 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.9 minutes across 65 appearances.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Remains out

    Tate will miss a third straight game due to a right ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up will come Thursday in Utah.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Not playing Sunday

    Tate (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

    Tate has struggled to see consistent minutes off the bench in recent games, and the ankle injury will keep him sidelined for Sunday's contest. His next chance to play will come against Orlando on Tuesday, but Tate won't carry a lot of fantasy upside outside of very deep formats when available.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Won't play Friday

    Tate is out for Friday's game versus the Heat due to a right ankle sprain.

    Tate has played just 22 total minutes across Houston's last five games, so his absence shouldn't significantly impact the team's rotation. Tate's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Dallas.

  • Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Back in rotation Tuesday

    Tate had two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds and two blocks across 13 minutes during Tuesday's 103-101 victory over the Spurs.

    Tate moved back into the rotation Tuesday, playing just his second game in the past two weeks. Although injuries to other players may have opened up some playing time for Tate, there is no reason to grab him outside of very deep formats.
