Efficient in win over Utah
Sengun had 19 points (8-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 28 minutes during Friday's 140-106 win over the Jazz.
Analysis
Sengun was limited to just 28 minutes in a blowout win over the Jazz, but he was pretty efficient with his shot and also delivered a decent, albeit unspectacular, stat line. Sengun has failed to score at least 20 points in three of his last five appearances. While he continues to play regularly, his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction of late, although that has largely been because he's not playing much in blowout games with the Rockets having already secured a playoff berth.

Comes close to double-double
Sengun closed with 25 points (9-13 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 win over Milwaukee.
Analysis
Sengun briefly left Wednesday's game in the fourth quarter but returned quickly and was remarkably efficient. He delivered one of his best performances of the season in terms of his shooting numbers, but he also ended just one board shy of a double-double while filling the stat sheet. Sengun has been putting up excellent numbers since returning from a two-game absence in mid-March due to a back injury, averaging 23.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks per game over his last nine appearances.

Exits to locker room
Sengun exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game against the Bucks due to an apparent lower-back issue, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Sengun appeared to tweak his lower back before exiting to the locker room with 8:33 remaining in the final quarter. The star big man can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light.

Full stat line in win
Sengun supplied 36 points (12-23 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 13 rebounds, seven assists, three steals and three blocks across 32 minutes in Sunday's 134-102 win over the Pelicans.
Analysis
Sengun delivered an efficient performance, especially from beyond the arc, while stuffing the stat sheet in Sunday's blowout victory. The star big man led all players in scoring, reaching the 30-point threshold for the third time over his last four outings and for the 10th time this season. He also tied his season high in triples made and secured his 32nd game with a double-double or better on the campaign. Additionally, the 23-year-old center dominated on the defensive end, chipping in at least three combined steals-plus-blocks for a fourth straight game.
