The Rockets have agreed to a three-year, $39 million contract extension with Adams, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Adams was expected to be a hot commodity in free agency this summer after having an impressive showing in the NBA playoffs. The Rockets value what the veteran center brings to the table and got an extension done before he could test free agency in July. In seven games during the postseason, Adams averaged 5.7 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game while shooting 60 percent from the field.

Adams ended with three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 FT) and seven rebounds over 26 minutes during Sunday's 103-89 loss to the Warriors in Game 7 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
EDGE Analysis
Adams had a strong series overall, but couldn't make a significant impact Sunday with the Rockets attempting to utilize a frontcourt-heavy rotation. Adams was used sparingly in the regular season, playing an average of 13.7 minutes per night in 58 appearances with 3.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists. Adams is likely to generate considerable interest from contending teams as a free agent this offseason.

Adams played a major role in Friday's win, scoring a season-high 17 points off the bench. The veteran big man is averaging 6.2 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 68.8 percent from the field during the first-round series.

Adams (illness) is available for Monday's Game 4 against the Warriors, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Adams was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness, though he'll suit up as the Rockets attempt to even the series at two games apiece. The veteran big man has averaged 5.0 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 18.0 minutes per game in three first-round appearances.

Adams is now questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Warriors due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Adams was added to the team's injury report about 90 minutes before tipoff. The team will presumably wait to see if he can make it through pregame warmups before making a final determination on his availability for Monday night's matchup.

Adams ended Sunday's 95-85 loss to the Warriors in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with six points (3-4 FG, 0-2 FT), 12 rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Although Adams would alternate roles with Jock Landale during the regular season at times, he'll likely claim the bulk of the backup center minutes during the playoffs. During the regular season, Adams saw just 14.0 minutes per night with 4.0 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists.

Adams is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Thunder, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Ime Udoka decided to tweak the starting lineup in order to match the Thunder's frontcourt of Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren, so Adams will start alongside Alperen Sengun. Despite the starting nod, Adams isn't expected to make many waves in fantasy.
