Fred VanVleet injury update for Thursday, December 5 vs. Warriors

Fred VanVleet injury update for Thursday, December 5 vs. Warriors

Published:

By: Stan Son

Rockets PG Fred VanVleet is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Golden State Warriors due to a right knee contusion. There’s been no mention of when the injury occurred or the severity of it. Teammate Tari Eason is out for the contest due to a concussion.

VanVleet has played 45, 42, 35, and 38 minutes over the last four games. The Rockets next play on Sunday in Los Angeles to face the Clippers. Amen Thompson would likely get the start for VanVleet, with Reed Sheppard seeing an uptick in playing time off the bench.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
