RecapFred VanVleet amassed 16 points (6-of-12 FGs), three rebounds, four assists, one block and four three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Suns.
VanVleet’s four three-pointers matched his season high, a number he’s hit on three occasions in eight games. The overall field-goal percentage pushed the Rockets’ point guard over 40 percent for the season, and that’s around where VanVleet has hovered for most of his career. Even with the low field-goal percentage, VanVleet does enough in other categories to provide reliable middle-round value when healthy.
