VanVleet ended Sunday's 107-104 win over Denver with 26 points (9-21 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds and four assists across 41 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet popped for a season-high 26 points, giving him back-to-back games with at least 20 points and five on the campaign. Houston's new floor general has been as advertised to start the campaign, averaging a career-high 7.9 assists per game while sinking 3.1 triples a night. The Rockets have been one of the biggest surprises of 2023-24 thus far, and VanVleet's veteran contributions are a big reason why.

VanVleet accumulated 11 points (3-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 27 minutes during Monday's 122-97 victory over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet attempted a season-low eight shots, as Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun led Houston offensively. VanVleet's scoring production (16.7 PPG) is down slightly compared to his last few years in Toronto, but he is averaging a career-high 8.2 assists while operating as a true floor general with his new squad.

VanVleet ended Saturday's 107-89 victory over the Kings with 21 points (7-22 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, 12 assists and two blocks over 36 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran floor general didn't have a good shooting performance and finished with more shot attempts than points scored, but other than that, he delivered another strong outing. VanVleet struggled badly in his Houston debut, but he has posted three double-doubles across four performances since then.

VanVleet produced 22 points (8-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and 11 assists in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 128-119 victory over Charlotte.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet's double double and stout 11:2 AST:TO ratio guided Houston to its first win of the season. Last season, VanVleet ranked 10th league-wide with 606 three-point attempts, but he recorded just 12 games with at least five made triples. He'll look to carry his momentum into a high-octane affair against Sacramento on Saturday.

VanVleet provided eight points (2-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Sunday's 106-95 loss to the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet approached a triple-double during Friday's narrow loss to the Spurs, but he struggled to get his shot to fall Sunday and was held below 10 points for the first time over the first three games of the season. He made a defensive impact with two steals, but it was still a discouraging performance overall. The 29-year-old has averaged 15.3 points, 7.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 36.7 minutes per game over his first three games with the Rockets.

VanVleet closed with 24 points (10-20 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and 12 assists across 45 minutes during Friday's 126-122 overtime loss to San Antonio.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet looked much improved compared to his performance in the season opener, when he recorded 14 points while shooting 5-for-13 from the field against the Magic on Wednesday. While it wasn't enough to lift Houston to victory in a tough matchup that was decided in overtime, this was a step in the right direction for the veteran floor general. Fantasy managers who have VanVleet in their rosters are certainly hoping for more games like this going forward.

VanVleet contributed 14 points (5-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), one rebound, five assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 116-86 loss to the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet didn't have his best shooting performance, and overall, his stat line was subpar compared to the numbers he delivered with the Raptors in past seasons. This is his first game in a new environment, however, so VanVleet is undoubtedly going to improve and record better numbers once he adjusts well to his teammates and a new system.

VanVleet recorded 20 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six assists, three rebounds and two steals in Friday's 110-104 preseason win over the Heat.
