Off injury report
Smith (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Analyse
Smith did not play in the back leg of the Rockets' back-to-back set against the Trail Blazers on Friday due to a right ankle sprain. The 2022 first-rounder isn't listed on the injury report, which means Reed Sheppard will likely revert to a bench role for Sunday's contest.

Ruled out Friday
Smith (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Portland.
Analyse
Smith will miss the second leg of this back-to-back set due to a right ankle sprain, and his next opportunity to play will come Sunday in San Antonio. With the 22-year-old forward sidelined, Reed Sheppard will likely return to the starting five, while Dorian Finney-Smith and Josh Okogie are also candidates to see increased playing time.

Questionable for Friday
Smith (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Analyse
Smith logged a heavy 42-minute workload in his return from a two-game absence Thursday, though he struggled significantly with his shot, finishing 0-for-8 from the floor. While the heavy minutes suggest the Rockets aren't overly concerned with the long-term health of his right ankle, the quick turnaround for the second half of a back-to-back has placed his availability in doubt. If Smith is ultimately held out to manage the injury, Reed Sheppard and Josh Okogie would likely see increased roles in the rotation.

Logs big minutes in return
Smith (ankle) registered three points (0-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 42 minutes Thursday in the Rockets' 115-113 overtime loss to the Warriors.
Analyse
Though Smith couldn't get any shots to fall in his return from a two-game absence, the heavy minutes he received are an indication that the Rockets aren't concerned about the health of his right ankle moving forward. The poor shooting performance should be viewed as an outlier for Smith, who had hit double figures in the scoring column while converting at a 55 percent clip from the field and 45.1 percent clip from downtown over his previous 13 appearances.

Upgraded to available
Smith (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Warriors.
Analyse
Smith is back from a two-game absence with a sprained right ankle, and he should send Reed Sheppard back to the bench Thursday. Smith is looking to pick up where he left off in his last eight games before getting injured, as he was averaging 17.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.0 blocks in 34.7 minutes per contest while shooting 57.6 percent from the field during that period.

Questionable for Thursday
Smith is questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors with a right ankle sprain.
Analyse
It appeared initially that Smith was in the clear for Thursday, but now it looks like the Rockets want him to test out the injury during pregame warmups before giving him the green light. If Smith is able to return from a two-game absence, Reed Sheppard would likely revert to a bench role.

Will play Thursday
Smith (ankle) will play Thursday against the Warriors, according to Rockets reporter Will Funkel.
Analyse
Smith is set to return from his ankle issue after two games on the sidelines. Amen Thompson (ankle) is also good to go for Houston. With this news, Reed Sheppard is likely to retreat to the bench.
