Adams left Sunday’s game against the Pelicans with an ankle injury and didn’t return. While X-rays were negative, Udoka told reporters Tuesday that Adams is dealing with a Grade 3 ankle sprain and he’s out indefinitely. With Adams sidelined, Tari Eason will move back into the starting lineup and Clint Capela could move into the rotation as the backup center.

Adams, who started alongside Alperen Şengün, needed help getting back to the locker room after rolling his left ankle during the fourth quarter. The good news is that X-rays were negative, so the veteran center is dealing with a sprain. However, Adams is likely going to miss some time, which should push Clint Capela (DNP-CD) into the rotation.

The Rockets will go with a bigger lineup for their final game of Week 13, with Adams replacing Josh Okogie in the starting five. Adams has a higher fantasy ceiling when starting, but he mainly provides rebounds in that role.

Adams played 25 minutes off the bench in Thursday’s loss to the Thunder. His absence from the injury report means he’ll be available for both ends of a back-to-back for the first time this season. Alperen Şengün is locked in as the starting center, which limits Adams’ fantasy upside.

Adams returned from an ankle injury and started in place of Alperen Sengun (ankle) against the Suns on Monday. The 32-year-old center had eight points and 11 rebounds in 31 minutes. Clint Capela only played nine minutes off the bench so it’s clear the Rockets prefer to rely on Adams with Sengun out.

Adams is set to return after missing the last two games with a right ankle sprain. The 32-year-old center is suddenly of greater importance with Alperen Sengun set to miss two weeks with an ankle injury. Adams is rostered in just seven percent of Yahoo! leagues, but could be worth a look in deeper formats with Sengun sidelined.

Adams has missed Houston’s last two games with a sprained right ankle. His availability gained importance when Alperen Şengün left Saturday’s loss to the Mavericks after spraining his right ankle just over a minute into the game. If Adams can’t play, Clint Capela would get another start in the middle.

Adams was initially questionable, but he will now miss a second straight game. With Alperen Şengün healthy and available, Clint Capela will fill the backup center minutes instead of Adams, which won’t leave him enough time to be worth streaming.

Adams is out after initially being listed as questionable for Thursday’s game. With Clint Capela also out, the Rockets could be severely shorthanded in the post, even if Alperen Şengün is cleared to return from his calf injury.

Adams has been starting in place of Alperen Şengün (calf), who is also questionable for this game. The other center option is Clint Capela, who is questionable as well with an illness. Adams’ only path to streaming value will be if Şengün remains out.

Filling in for the injured Alperen Şengün in the Rockets’ starting lineup, Adams exited during the third quarter with a sprained right ankle. If he misses time beyond the rest of Monday’s game, the Rockets may have to rely on Clint Capela to take on a prominent role. But that would only happen if Şengün remains out.

The Rockets won’t have Alperen Şengün for Saturday’s game, as he has been ruled out with left calf tightness. As a result, Adams will move into the starting lineup, where he can provide streaming value for those needing rebounds and blocks. Also, Clint Capela should play rotation minutes off the bench. Amen Thompson, Kevin Durant, Tari Eason and Jabari Smith Jr. complete the starting five.

Adams did not play in Sunday’s loss to the Kings, which was Houston’s second game in as many nights. His return means that Clint Capela will likely fall out of the rotation. He should not have been streamed on Sunday, so this doesn’t change anything in fantasy basketball.

Absent from the most recent Rockets’ injury report, Adams will take his customary night off with Sunday’s game being the second in as many nights. That means there should be more playing time available to Clint Capela, but there’s no need to stream him.

With Alperen Şengün sidelined due to an illness, Adams will start in his place. Rockets coach Ime Udoka said that Adams will sit on Saturday against the Mavericks, so if Şengün remains out, Clint Capela could be in line for his first start of the season.

Adams missed Monday’s loss against the Jazz due to rest. The 32-year-old center will be back on the floor for Wednesday’s matchup with the Kings. Adams isn’t worth rostering in most fantasy leagues unless something happens to Alperen Sengun.

Adams was given the night off on Monday, sitting out the second game of a back-to-back in Utah. However, his absence did not result in significant minutes for fellow reserve Clint Capela, who played nine minutes. If Adams misses another game, there’s no need to consider adding Capela.

The Rockets are playing the second leg of a back-to-back set, and the veteran will sit out Monday’s rematch with Utah. With Adams out of action, Clint Capela should see additional run off the bench.

Adams only logged 17 minutes in this game, but that was enough time for him to record his third double-double of the season. He was able to dominate down low, but also at the free throw line, which is typically a weakness for him. Adams is shooting a career-best 73.3 percent from the line after shooting 46.2 percent last year and 36.4 percent the year before. He’ll only be worth consistently streaming when Alperen Şengün is unavailable, but this was a strong performance for him.

Adams will be back in action after one game on the sideline. Expect him to handle his usual workload, while Clint Capela - who logged 18 minutes in Wednesday’s win over Golden State - should see his role reduced.

Adams missed the Rockets’ most recent contest, a win over the Warriors on November 26. Due to his absence, Clint Capela played 18 minutes off the bench. While Capela did grab 12 rebounds, the role isn’t robust enough for him to be worth the risk in most fantasy leagues. Leave him on the waiver wire if Adams can’t play on Sunday.

Adams is dealing with left ankle tendinopathy, and there could be minutes available to Clint Capela if he’s unable to play on Monday. However, even if Capela picks up rotation minutes, he would not be worth the risk in most fantasy leagues. Also, the Rockets could bring Josh Okogie back into the starting lineup, especially with the Suns only having one true big (Mark Williams) in their starting lineup.

Adams was inserted into the starting lineup for Wednesday’s win over the Cavaliers, bumping Josh Okogie to the bench. Okogie may have been moved back into the starting lineup regardless of Adams’ status. Still, the chances of him returning to that role increase exponentially if the veteran center’s knee keeps Adams out.

With the Cavaliers boasting a bigger frontcourt than most teams, the Rockets have made a change to their starting lineup. Adams will start, which shifts Smith and Şengün up a position, with Josh Okogie coming off the bench. Okogie provided limited value as a starter, so he should already be on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Adams will rejoin the Rockets’ rotation after a one-game absence due to a hip injury. He’ll remain off the bench for the fifth straight game following his initial inclusion in the starting lineup to begin the season. The veteran is averaging 6.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 0.7 blocks and 1.0 steals per game through six regular-season appearances.

After missing the Rockets’ last game with a hip injury, Adams is in danger of missing another. Clint Capela had 10 rebounds in 16 minutes off the bench on Wednesday and should fill the backup center minutes again if Adams remains out.
