  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Double-double in Sunday's win

    Smith registered 13 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one block in 34 minutes during Sunday's 117-106 victory over the Clippers.

    The double-double was the fourth of the season for Smith, and he recorded at least one rejection and one made three for the seventh straight contest. The third-year big remains somewhat inconsistent, but over that seven-game stretch, the 21-year-old is averaging 11.4 points, 8.3 boards, 2.3 threes, 2.1 blocks and 1.1 assists while shooting 42.1 percent (16-for-38) from beyond the arc but only 44.4 percent overall from the floor.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Logs 15/14 double-double

    Smith contributed 15 points (6-15 FG, 3-9 3Pt), 14 rebounds and three blocks in 40 minutes during Sunday's 119-116 victory over the Thunder.

    Smith's results have been up and down, but the third-year pro has shown the ability to capitalize when game flow works in his favor. Although he has only three double-doubles this season, he's come tantalizingly close to the mark several times. Over 21 games, he's averaging 12.0 points, 6.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Efficient from field

    Smith produced 19 points (8-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 117-111 overtime win over Minnesota.

    This was one of Smith's most complete performances of the season as the Rockets picked up their third win out of their last four games. Smith is starting to turn the corner after a slow start to the season, averaging 15.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.3 blocks and 2.5 three-pointers over his last four outings.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Shooting woes in loss Saturday

    Smith totaled 14 points (3-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 37 minutes during Saturday's 104-98 loss to the Trail Blazers.

    On the surface, Smith had a solid showing and finished just two boards away from a double-double. However, he continues to struggle with his shot. He's made four or fewer field goals in four of his last five games despite averaging 8.4 shot attempts per game in that stretch. Smith has a secondary role in the Rockets' offensive scheme, but his lack of efficiency certainly limits his upside.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Efficient scoring in win

    Smith recorded 23 points (8-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and one assist in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 130-113 victory over the Pacers.

    Smith was Houston's second-leading scorer behind Alperen Sengun in Wednesday's win. However, Smith has had a slow start to the season, converting just 31.5 percent of his 4.6 three-point attempts per contest.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Best game of season Friday

    Smith finished Friday's 125-104 win over the Clippers with 28 points (11-17 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and two steals over 35 minutes.

    Smith posted a season-high scoring mark Friday, but it's hard to imagine him posting these numbers steadily. This was just the second time he reached the 20-point mark this season, and he's a low-level scoring option in an offensive scheme that also features Alperen Sengun, Fred VanVleet and Jalen Green. Smith is averaging just 11.8 points and 6.1 rebounds per game since the beginning of November.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Modest output in loss

    Smith logged four points (2-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound and one block in 17 minutes during Friday's 126-107 loss to the Thunder.

    Smith's results have been confounding through the first three weeks of the season after widespread predictions of a breakout campaign. He's exceeded 20 points only once this season, and his totals have been peppered with four games in the single digits. He occasionally grabs enough rebounds to offset a poor scoring performance, but the drop-off is concerning. Increased volume beyond the arc seems to be key to his higher totals, and he's made only two shots from deep over the past two games.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Lackluster performance in win

    Smith added seven points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt), six rebounds and an assist across 22 minutes in Monday's 109-97 win over New York.

    Monday's game marked season lows in both minutes and points for Smith, following his season high in both categories the game prior. While he is averaging 12.6 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.4 blocks over 31.0 minutes this season, it is definitely worth monitoring his consistency regarding his offensive production moving forward.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Solid outing in win

    Smith chipped in 14 points (5-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and one steal in 29 minutes during Thursday's 108-102 win over the Mavericks.

    After starting off the season struggling with his efficiency, Smith has shot over 50 percent from the field in back-to-back games. While Smith's scoring numbers haven't been particularly impressive, he is one of the best rebounding forwards in the NBA, averaging 8.4 boards per contest.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Grabs 16 boards against Memphis

    Smith supplied 14 points (5-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 16 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 35 minutes during Friday's 128-108 win over the Grizzlies.

    Smith was the game's leading rebounder Friday, and it was his first double-double since March 19 during the 2023-24 regular season. Smith and Alperen Sengun combined for 31 of the Rockets' 41 rebounds, 11 of which came on the offensive side of the floor. It was a nice bounce-back effort from his eight-point performance Wednesday, and Smith will look to build off his effort against the Spurs on Saturday.

  • Rockets' Jabari Smith: Pulls down 10 boards Tuesday

    Smith finished with eight points (4-13 FG, 0-5 3Pt), 10 rebounds and five assists across 25 minutes in Tuesday's 118-98 preseason win over the Pelicans.

    Smith posted solid numbers as a rebounder and playmaker, but there's no question he had a rough night from a shooting perspective. The third-year forward has averaged at least 12.5 points per game in his first two seasons in the league. He could score 15 points per game with a higher usage rate, though it remains to be seen if the touches will be there considering he shares the court with Jalen Green, Fred VanVleet and Alperen Sengun, three players who also demand a fair share of touches on offense.
