David Hardisty: Silas on Victor Oladipo: “To have Vic, it’s exciting. He fits into a lot of things I believe: A go-to guy, a downhill player… He’s also a quality, quality defensive player. He’s a true two-way guy.”
Stephen Silas Rumors
Adam Wexler: #Rockets HC Silas on @Mason Jones : “I was proud of him. He can score. He was our only primary ballhandler (and they were focused on that, they knew that.) As far as long-term stuff, he showed that he can play.” Jones had 24 pts, 6 rebs, 4 assts, 6 turnovers in the 103-91 loss
Cayleigh Griffin: I asked Coach Silas pregame if there’s any hesitation sending his two way players to the G League Bubble in Orlando next month, with the situation we have tonight (8 available players). He said, in short, yes. But he’s hopeful they won’t have this many injuries moving forward…
Rockets unable to have eight active players this Saturday?
Jeff McDonald: Stephen Silas seems to be realizing in real time the Rockets might not have the minimum eight players available to play. Sterling Brown is questionable, and if he doesn’t play Houston will have seven guys in uniform.
Alykhan Bijani: Good news for the #Rockets: Stephen Silas says that a few of his injured players will likely be ready Monday. “The injuries that we’re dealing with don’t seem to be long-term type injuries. Hopefully we’ll get a couple of guys back for the Chicago game, and the game after.”
