Jabari Smith Jr. scored 23 points (8-13 FG, 3-5 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go along with eight rebounds and one assist in the Rockets 130-113 win over the Pacers.
Fantasy Impact
Smith was able to bounce back from his struggles in his past couple of games. It has been an inconsistent start to the season for him as a shooter, but flashes like this performance show what he can do.
Jabari Smith Jr. led the Rockets offense Friday night, scoring 28 points (11-17 FG, 5-8 3PT, 1-1 FT) while also grabbing 11 rebounds, dishing out one assist, and recording two steals in a 125-104 win over the Clippers.
Fantasy Impact
Smith Jr. continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor of late, scoring at least five points and grabbing at least four rebounds in each of the last four games. The 21-year-old is a reliable option as part of a balanced Houston starting five, averaging 11.8 points and 7.0 rebounds per game to go along with a 16.6% usage rate so far this season.
Jabari Smith Jr. scored 12 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 3P) with four rebounds in the Rockets' 127-100 win over the Spurs on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
The former No.3 overall pick has struggled to take much of a third-year leap so far this season. Smith bounced back slightly from his scoring dip on Monday where he scored just seven points, but he still is not quite putting up the numbers you'd expect from someone drafted so high. There is still a lot of time left this season, however, and he can certainly grow into a bigger role.
Jabari Smith Jr. scored seven points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3PT) to go along with seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in the Rockets 109-106 loss against the Spurs.
Fantasy Impact
It was a struggle for Smith on the court in Saturday's loss. He was still involved on the glass grabbing seven rebounds.
Jabari Smith Jr. scored 14 points (5-13 FG, 0-3 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go with 16 rebounds and two blocks in Friday's 128-108 win over the Memphis Grizzlies.
Fantasy Impact
Smith was dominant on the boards on Friday. He logged a team-high 16 rebounds over the course of the night, and he was also able to score 14 points, leaving him with a double-double. This was a good bounce-back performance after his subpar season opener on Wednesday.
