Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Hits game-winning layup
Sengun finished with 24 points (10-19 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and two blocks in 37 minutes during Sunday's 117-116 victory over Golden State.
Sengun gave the Rockets the lead for good with a driving layup in the final seconds. Although the big man is getting a lot of help from Jabari Smith, Sengun continues to post fantasy-worthy totals on a squad that has no shortage of fantasy production. Most recently, Sengun's assist totals have been a hallmark of his game. He's averaged a surprising 6.9 assists over the past 11 games.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Efficient in win over Utah
Sengun had 19 points (8-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 28 minutes during Friday's 140-106 win over the Jazz.
Sengun was limited to just 28 minutes in a blowout win over the Jazz, but he was pretty efficient with his shot and also delivered a decent, albeit unspectacular, stat line. Sengun has failed to score at least 20 points in three of his last five appearances. While he continues to play regularly, his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction of late, although that has largely been because he's not playing much in blowout games with the Rockets having already secured a playoff berth.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Comes close to double-double
Sengun closed with 25 points (9-13 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 win over Milwaukee.
Sengun briefly left Wednesday's game in the fourth quarter but returned quickly and was remarkably efficient. He delivered one of his best performances of the season in terms of his shooting numbers, but he also ended just one board shy of a double-double while filling the stat sheet. Sengun has been putting up excellent numbers since returning from a two-game absence in mid-March due to a back injury, averaging 23.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks per game over his last nine appearances.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Returns Wednesday
Sengun (back) returned to Wednesday's game against the Bucks with 2:05 remaining in the fourth quarter, per the broadcast.
Sengun exited to the locker room earlier in the fourth after appearing to tweak his lower back. However, he returned to the bench shortly thereafter before checking back in.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Exits to locker room
Sengun exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game against the Bucks due to an apparent lower-back issue, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Sengun appeared to tweak his lower back before exiting to the locker room with 8:33 remaining in the final quarter. The star big man can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Full stat line in win
Sengun supplied 36 points (12-23 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 13 rebounds, seven assists, three steals and three blocks across 32 minutes in Sunday's 134-102 win over the Pelicans.
Sengun delivered an efficient performance, especially from beyond the arc, while stuffing the stat sheet in Sunday's blowout victory. The star big man led all players in scoring, reaching the 30-point threshold for the third time over his last four outings and for the 10th time this season. He also tied his season high in triples made and secured his 32nd game with a double-double or better on the campaign. Additionally, the 23-year-old center dominated on the defensive end, chipping in at least three combined steals-plus-blocks for a fourth straight game.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Drops 30 points in OT loss
Sengun logged 30 points (12-22 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, three assists and four blocks over 43 minutes during Wednesday's 110-108 overtime loss to the Timberwolves.
Sengun ended the night tied for the team lead in scoring with Kevin Durant. Sengun has reached the 30-point mark in back-to-back appearances and has collected six total blocks during this brief two-game hot streak.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Monster performance in loss
Sengun ended with 33 points (16-19 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-3 FT), 13 rebounds, 10 assists, two blocks and two steals over 37 minutes during Monday's 132-124 loss to the Bulls.
It was an incredible performance by the All-Star big man, who posted his fourth triple-double of the season to go with a highly efficient 33 points. Sengun has averaged 19.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.7 blocks in 31.5 minutes per tilt over his last seven games, shooting a potent 64.5 percent from the field during that span.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Cleared to face Miami
Sengun (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Sengun will shed a questionable tag in time to face Miami on Saturday night. The star center was a late addition to the injury report Saturday due to back tightness. In his last 11 games, Sengun is averaging 19.5 points, 7.6 rebounds and 5.5 assists across 31.7 minutes.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Nursing back injury
Sengun is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Miami due to back tightness.
Sengun missed two games earlier in the week due to a back issue but played in each of the Rockets' last two games, posting a double-double in both contests. If he's unable to play Saturday, then Clint Capela and Dorian Finney-Smith would be the top candidates to enter the Rockets' starting lineup.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Double-doubles in win
Sengun finished with 15 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-4 FT), nine rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and six turnovers across 32 minutes during Friday's 117-95 victory over Atlanta.
While Sengun did a solid job filling the stat sheet, he also piled up the turnovers, committing nearly one-third of Houston's 19 giveaways. The Rockets still came away with the win, but he'll need to take better care of the ball if they hope to pick up another victory against the Heat on Saturday.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Solid showing despite defeat
Sengun totaled 27 points (10-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 124-116 loss to the Lakers.
Sengun, who was returning to the hardwood after a brief two-game absence due to a back injury, led the Rockets in scoring in a game during which only he and Amen Thompson reached the 20-point plateau for Houston. The versatile big man posted a loaded line across the board, and his 10 assists were his best output in that category since he dished out 11 dimes in a triple-double against the Kings on Feb. 25.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Absent from injury report
Sengun (back) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.
After sitting out Houston's past two contests with a back issue, the star big man is ready to roll for Wednesday. Clint Capela should revert back to the No. 2 center spot after drawing a spot start during Monday's meeting with the Lakers. Sengun has averaged 19.5 points, 7.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 30.4 minutes per tilt in his last six games, shooting 54.4 percent from the field.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Ruled out Monday
Sengun (back) is out for Monday's game against the Lakers, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Sengun was added to the injury report as questionable after missing Friday's game with a back injury, and the team has since decided to hold him out of Monday's matchup. Clint Capela will draw the start at center in Sengun's place.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Questionable for Monday
Sengun (back) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Lakers.
Sengun is in danger of missing his second straight game due to the back issue, but we'll have a better idea on his status based on his activity level at shootaround. If Sengun is forced to spend another game on the bench, Dorian Finney-Smith could draw another start and there would be more minutes available for Clint Capela.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Won't play Friday
Sengun (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pelicans, Adam Wexler of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Sengun popped up on Thursday's injury report due to lower-back pain. The injury is severe enough for the fifth-year center to sit out Friday's contest, and he'll look to progress enough in his recovery to return for Monday's game against the Lakers. Clint Capela will likely enter the Rockets' starting five in Sengun's absence, and Amen Thompson, Reed Sheppard and Kevin Durant should all see increased responsibilities.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Questionable for Friday
Sengun is questionable to play Friday versus the Pelicans due to low back pain.
Friday's contest will be the fourth game in six days for the Rockets, and with a matchup against the 19-44 Pelicans, the Rockets' medical staff may opt to give Sengun a rest day. If he is forced to the sidelines, Clint Capela would have a chance to start, and Kevin Durant could see some increased playmaking responsibilities.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Scores 16 in blowout loss
Sengun finished with 16 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes during Sunday's 145-120 loss to San Antonio.
Sengun has been a bit inconsistent with his scoring lately and has failed to reach 20 points in four of his last six appearances. Over that stretch, the skilled big man is still averaging 20.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and a combined 1.2 steals-plus-blocks per game, so Sengun remains a strong fantasy option even if his numbers have been trending slightly down of late.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Big second half in Friday's win
Sengun logged 28 points (11-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block over 26 minutes during the Rockets' 106-99 win over the Trail Blazers on Friday.
Sengun dropped 15 of his game-high 28 points in the second half of Friday's game. It could have been a larger performance for the fifth-year center, but his playing time was limited as he battled through foul trouble. Sengun has averaged 19.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 steals over 33.0 minutes per game since the All-Star break.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Sniffs triple-double
Sengun produced 17 points (8-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 overtime loss to the Warriors.
Sengun, who was questionable to play this game due to an illness, still suited up, finishing three boards and three assists away from recording what would've been his second triple-double since the All-Star break. The star big man hasn't missed a game since Jan. 9, and that availability is valuable in most formats as well. Sengun is averaging 18.6 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game since the All-Star break.
