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.
