Jae'Sean Tate (injury maintenance) likely out Monday for Rockets
Houston Rockets small forward Jae'Sean Tate (injury maintenance) is expected to be held out Monday versus the Golden State Warriors, per Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle.
What It Means:
Tate played 22 minutes on Sunday versus the New Orleans Pelicans and he has been held out for one game of back-to-backs since returning from an ankle injury, so Feigen believes the Rockets will continue the trend on Monday versus the Warriors. TyTy Washington Jr. was recalled from the Rio Grande Valley Vipers on Monday, so he could absorb some of Tate's playing time.
Washington ($3,800) is averaging 0.70 FanDuel points per minute for the Rockets over 30 appearances this season. Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Rockets’ implied total (113.25) is the third-lowest on Monday's six-game slate, but the game total (237.5) is the second-highest.
