Smith recorded his second double-double in the past three games, continuing his strong start to the season. Despite battling knee pain, he has put together an impressive run of late, averaging 16.3 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.8 three-pointers in 33.1 minutes per game in his past six appearances.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Good to go Friday
Smith (knee) is active and part of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Iffy for Friday
Smith (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
Smith is back on the injury report due to right knee tendinopathy. The Rockets are likely to see how the big man is feeling closer to Friday's tipoff before clarifying his status. If Smith cannot give it a go, Josh Okogie would be in position to take on heavy playing time in the frontcourt.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Cleared to play Wednesday
Smith (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against Cleveland, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.
Smith will shake off a questionable designation to avoid missing his second game of the season. The 2022 first-rounder is handling his usual role in the starting lineup. On the year, Smith has averaged 14.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks in 33.0 minutes per contest over 11 games.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Pops for 22 points
Smith provided 22 points (9-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes during Friday's 140-116 win over the Trail Blazers.
Smith tallied at least 20 points for the second time this season, continuing what has been a serviceable start. Despite the addition of Kevin Durant, Smith is having arguably the best season of his young career, averaging 14.9 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.6 combined steals and blocks, good enough for top-80 value in standard nine-category leagues.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Just misses double-double Sunday
Smith registered 16 points (5-15 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 31 minutes during Sunday's 122-115 win over the Bucks.
The fourth-year forward just missed recording his first double-double of the season, but he did set a new season high on the glass. Smith has scored in double digits in seven of eight contests to begin the season, averaging 14.0 points, 5.9 boards, 2.0 threes, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in 32.9 minutes a game.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Scores 16 points in return
Smith recorded 16 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 win over Memphis.
Smith returned to his regular starting role after a one-game absence due to an ankle sprain and posted a solid stat line. Smith has been a consistent secondary scoring option for the Rockets and has scored in double digits in each of his six appearances this season while clearing the 15-point threshold three times already. To put things into context, he achieved that feat just 11 times in 57 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Will play Wednesday
Smith (ankle) is good to go for Wednesday's game in Memphis, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Smith is back after a one-game stint on the sidelines, which means Tari Eason will likely be returning to the second unit Wednesday evening. Jae'Sean Tate could drop from the rotation entirely with Smith back in the mix.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Won't play Monday
Smith (ankle) will not play Monday against the Mavericks, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.
Smith was able to get through shootaround and head coach Ime Udoka said he "doubts" Smith's absence will extend beyond Monday, so it sounds like there's a decent chance he'll be able to get out there for Wednesday's game in Memphis. With Smith watching from the bench Monday, Tari Eason will get a start, and Jae'Sean Tate should be able to get into the rotation.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Goes through shootaround
Smith (ankle) participated in Monday's morning shootaround, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Smith is currently listed as questionable on the latest injury report, but his availability Monday morning is at least a good sign for his fantasy managers. Lerner reports that Smith is likely to be a game-time decision, and if he's unable to play, it's possible the Rockets lean on Tari Eason and Josh Okogie.

Smith is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Mavericks due to a sprained right ankle.
Smith is in jeopardy of missing his first game this season due to the ankle injury. If the 22-year-old forward joins Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) on the sidelines, Tari Eason, Jae'Sean Tate and Josh Okogie are candidates for an uptick in minutes against Dallas.

Rockets' Jabari Smith: Drops season-high 25 points in win
Smith dropped in a season-high 25 points (8-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT) Wednesday, to go with five rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block over 38 turnover-less minutes in a 139-121 win over the Raptors.
Smith got off to a quick start in this one, dropping in 10 points in his first six minutes of play, and he did an excellent job helping spread the floor by knocking down the kick-out threes. He's been heating up over the past two, so it'll be interesting to see if he can keep it going Saturday with a tough matchup in Boston.

Smith put up limited shot attempts but still finished as one of seven Rockets players to score in double figures. The 22-year-old forward also tied Josh Okogie for the game-high mark in steals. Through three regular-season outings, Smith is averaging 12.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 35.3 minutes per game.

Smith (rest) won't play during Thursday's exhibition with Atlanta, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.

Smith finished with 26 points (7-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 8-8 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 22 minutes in Tuesday's 130-128 preseason win over the Pelicans.
Smith was unstoppable in the scoring department, lighting up New Orleans for 26 points in 22 minutes. This is an excellent sign for the Auburn product, as he might be able to take his game to the next level during the 2025-26 campaign if given ample time on the floor.
