Reed Sheppard

Okogie is back in the starting lineup for the first time in three games. He replaces Reed Sheppard, who can still provide solid fantasy value in a reserve role. Also, the Rockets will have Steven Adams to provide rebounds off the bench.

Sheppard isn't part of the starting five for Wednesday's game against Sacramento, Michael C. Wright of ESPN.com reports.

Sheppard registered 31 points (12-25 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 104-100 victory over Golden State.

After tallying just seven points in a win over the Suns on Monday, Sheppard responded on Wednesday with his third 20-point game of the month, and first 30-point game of his young career. He was productive from beyond the arc and dazzled in the midrange, which led him to finish as Houston's leading scorer on the evening. He also made an impact with his rebounding and playmaking in the win. The sophomore guard continues to put together a strong season and should remain an important piece going forward.

Durant will miss a second game for personal reasons, which should result in Reed Sheppard making another start. The second-year guard has played well this season, and he is worth rostering, especially with Durant unavailable.
