Alperen Sengun (illness) out for Rockets Monday
The Houston Rockets have ruled out Alperen Sengun for their Monday night game against the Utah Jazz.
What It Means:
Sengun was questionable heading into the game with a non-COVID illness, but wasn't feeling well enough to suit up. The 20-year-old center has averaged 24 minutes per game so far in his second season in the league.
With Sengun out tonight and Bruno Fernando (knee) sidelined, the Rockets will have big shoes to fill. Usman Garuba could be a strong value on FanDuel tonight with a $4,100 salary. Our models project him for 25 fantasy points, with 8.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 1.9 assists against the Jazz.
