Adams has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Pacers due to a right ankle sprain, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports. He totaled eight points (3-4 FG, 2-6 FT), five rebounds and one block in 22 minutes prior to exiting.
EDGE Analysis
Adams departed Monday's action in the third quarter, and after being evaluated further, Houston has decided to shut the big man down for the night. His availability for Thursday's game in Brooklyn is up in the air at this point.

Adams (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Monday's game against the Pacers, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear why Adams headed to the locker room, though he can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light. With Alperen Sengun (calf) unavailable, Clint Capela should see increased playing time if Adams is unable to return.

Adams is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers, Tanner Nichols of IE Sports Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran big man will move to the first unit due to the absence of Alperen Sengun (calf). Adams doesn't bring the same skill set as Sengun, but he's an excellent rim protector and rebounder. Adams is averaging 5.7 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.6 blocks per game across 23 appearances (five starts) this season.

Adams (rest) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

Adams will rest Sunday against the Kings, Sam Warren of The Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Although Adams isn't on the injury report, he's going to miss the second leg of this back-to-back set for maintenance like he normally does. Clint Capela could soak up a handful of minutes with this news.

Adams logged six points (2-10 FG, 2-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Thursday's 133-128 overtime loss to the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Adams had a tough showing from the field, but he continues to be an elite source of rebounds with a sprinkle of defensive stats. Across 20 appearances, the center holds averages of 6.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.7 blocks in 21.6 minutes per contest. That has him positioned just inside the top-200 players for per-game value in nine-category formats.

Adams (ankle) is off the injury report for Thursday's game against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Adams sat out Saturday's game against Dallas due to right ankle tendinopathy, but his absence from the injury report means he's set to be available Thursday. Over his last six games, the veteran center has averaged 7.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.8 blocks in 22.0 minutes per contest.

Adams is out for Saturday's game in Dallas due to right ankle tendinopathy.
EDGE Analysis
Alperen Sengun (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game, so Clint Capela could be headed for a spot start, while Jeff Green could see meaningful minutes in the rotation. Adams' next chance to play will come Thursday against the Clippers.

Adams finished with four points (2-4 FG), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 117-98 win over Phoenix.
EDGE Analysis
Adams moved into the starting lineup for the fifth time this season, replacing Alperen Sengun, who was ruled out due to illness. As usual, Adams filled in admirably, including recording a season-high four combined steals and blocks. Sengun is unlikely to miss a significant amount of time, meaning Adams should be viewed as nothing more than a streaming option for those needing rebounds.

Adams will start Friday's game against the Suns, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Adams will step into the first unit due to the absence of Alperen Sengun (illness). In four starts this season, Adams has averaged 6.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 28.0 minutes. Friday night is the first leg of a back-to-back set, and Ime Udoka said pregame that Adams will be held out of Saturday's matchup with the Mavericks, per Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
