Steven Adams (HOU): Day-To-Day

The Houston Rockets sit at 52–30, a .634 winning percentage that places them fifth in the Western Conference and sixth in the league’s power rankings. They have won their most recent game, improving to a 9–1 record over the last ten contests and posting a net rating of +5.2.

Center Steven Adams, wearing jersey #12, has contributed modest scoring (5.8 points per game) while providing solid rebounding (8.6 per game) and occasional playmaking (1.5 assists) on 50.4% shooting in 32 games. Coach Ime Udoka indicated that, because of an ankle issue, Adams is unlikely to log full minutes in both halves of back‑to‑back sets at the start of the 2026‑27 season. The Rockets will need to manage his minutes carefully and may look to other front‑court players to fill the gap while monitoring his health day‑to‑day.
