Rockets' Fred VanVleet: Struggles with shot in win
VanVleet recorded seven points (2-8 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
VanVleet hasn't been able to get back to form offensively as of late, as he failed to crack double digits Wednesday despite playing a game-high 42 minutes. However, the Rockets followed the lead of Jalen Green, who scored a game-high 38 points, to bounce back from a Game 1 loss at home before the series shifts to San Francisco for the next two games.

Rockets' Amen Thompson: Muted performance in win
Thompson notched 11 points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and three assists in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 victory over Golden State in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Thompson has been one of the best all-around players for the Rockets during the 2024-25 campaign, but he struggled to have a significant impact in Game 2, finishing with a less-than-stellar stat line. The rising star usually makes his presence felt defensively, which didn't happen Wednesday. However, Houston was still able to come out on top ahead of the series shifting to San Francisco for the next two games.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Notches 14 points
Eason had 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 victory over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
This game got heated at times, and at one point, Eason threw a towel at the Warriors when both teams converged into a huddle. As for the actual game, Eason was far more effective Wednesday after being held to six points on 3-of-10 shooting in Game 1. This series will shift to Golden State on Saturday with the teams tied 1-1.

Rockets' Dillon Brooks: Efficient shooting in win
Brooks provided 16 points (6-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 victory over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Brooks was one of five players who scored in double figures for Houston on Wednesday. The defensive-minded forward was able to bounce back from a forgettable performance in Game 1, shooting 50 percent from the field, which helped propel his team to victory. The series is now shifting to San Francisco for the next two games, with many questions surrounding the status of Warriors star Jimmy Butler (pelvis) after a nasty fall that resulted in him missing all but eight minutes of Game 2.

Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Big double-double Wednesday
Sengun racked up 17 points (6-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 16 rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
While Jalen Green carried the scoring load for Houston, Sengun dominated the glass, as no Golden State player managed more than five rebounds. The fourth-year center has had a strong start to his postseason, averaging 21.5 points, 12.5 boards, 4.0 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.0 threes through the first two games of the series, and Sengun will take plenty of momentum into Game 3 on Saturday.

Rockets' Jalen Green: Erupts for game-high 38 in win
Green ended with 38 points (13-25 FG, 8-18 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, six assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Warriors in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
The fourth-year guard led all scorers on the night by a wide margin -- Stephen Curry paced the Warriors with 20 points, while no other Rocket managed more than 17. It was a stunning breakout for Green, who had scored in single digits in each of his prior four games while shooting 20.5 percent from the floor and 18.2 percent from beyond the arc, including just seven points in 31 minutes during his postseason debut Sunday. Green's eight made threes tied his career single-game high.

Rockets' Jae'Sean Tate: Out for Game 2 vs. Warriors
Tate is out for Wednesday's Game 2 of the Western Conference quarterfinals against the Warriors due to a right ankle impingement.
Head coach Ime Udoka labeled Tate week-to-week at the close of the regular season, and the veteran forward will remain sidelined Wednesday. His next chance to return to the floor comes Saturday for Game 3 back in Golden State. The Rockets should rely more on Jabari Smith and Tari Eason in the frontcourt until Tate is cleared to suit up again.

Rockets' Jock Landale: Ruled out for Game 2
Landale (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Warriors.
Landale will miss his second straight game due to a right knee contusion. The big man's next chance to suit up will come in Saturday's Game 3 against Golden State, though he's unlikely to play significant minutes in Houston's rotation whenever he returns.

Rockets' Steven Adams: Effective in Game 1 loss
Adams ended Sunday's 95-85 loss to the Warriors in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with six points (3-4 FG, 0-2 FT), 12 rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes.
Although Adams would alternate roles with Jock Landale during the regular season at times, he'll likely claim the bulk of the backup center minutes during the playoffs. During the regular season, Adams saw just 14.0 minutes per night with 4.0 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Efficient shooting in loss
Smith (groin) accumulated 11 points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one block and one steal across 25 minutes during Sunday's 95-85 loss to the Warriors in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Smith didn't light up the scoreboard during his time on the court, but he was efficient with his limited opportunities and ended up pacing the Houston bench in minutes. The Rockets shot just 20.7 percent from downtown as a team in Game 1, so head coach Ime Udoka could look to open up more minutes for Smith in Game 2 if he wants to get an extra perimeter threat on the court.

Rockets' Dillon Brooks: Notches 11 points
Brooks posted 11 points (3-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 95-85 loss to the Warriors in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Brooks was one of four Houston players to reach double figures, while Jalen Green and Amen Thompson combined for 15 points. Brooks made 76 appearances during the regular season, posting averages of 14.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.5 three-pointers on 42.8 percent shooting.

Rockets' Amen Thompson: Nears double-double in loss
Thompson registered eight points (4-9 FG, 0-4 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Sunday's 95-85 loss to Golden State in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Thompson is one of the most promising young stars on the Rockets, especially in terms of the impact he makes on the defensive end of the floor. However, during the Game 1 loss to the Warriors on Sunday, the defensive-minded forward made more of an impact on the glass, ripping down nine rebounds to go along with eight points and six assists. Unfortunately, it was enough to help Houston hold off Golden State from taking a 1-0 series lead.

Rockets' Fred VanVleet: Shoots the ball poorly
VanVleet ended Sunday's 95-85 loss to Golden State in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 10 points (4-19 FG, 2-13 3Pt), one rebound, seven assists and one steal in 40 minutes.
VanVleet's poor shooting has been a consistent theme for most of the season, but with 19 shot attempts on the night, the guard seemed unfazed. During the regular season, VanVleet hit 37.4 percent from the field across 61 appearances, averaging 14.0 points, 5.6 assists, 3.6 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.6 three-pointers.
