If not, Gary Trent Jr. and Dennis Schroder will carry on in their respective parts. Toronto’s starting center, Jakob Poeltl, is likewise questionable.
The Rockets have not been very successful recently. They dropped 3 of their previous 5 games and are currently 22-25 on the season. For Houston this season, Alperen Sengun is enjoying a fantastic campaign. In addition to pulling down 9.2 rebounds a game, he is scoring 21.2 points. With 8.6 assists per match, Fred VanVleet leads the squad as well. Tari Eason is attempting to recover from a leg injury. The Houston Rockets are making 78.1% of their free throws and 35% of their shots from outside the arc and they pull down 45.3 rebounds per game while giving up 34.4% of their shooting from beyond the arc. Because Alperen Sengun is doubtful, Udoka may start with a small ball lineup in the event that the Turkish international is not available.
