Isaiah

Crawford

Crawford spent last season with the Rockets on a two-way contract. While he is currently a restricted free agent, Houston’s willingness to extend a qualifying offer indicates what they think of the forward. Crawford put forth another quality performance on Tuesday, scoring on all three levels and playing well defensively. Houston still has an open two-way contract slot, so they could conceivably keep Crawford for another season under that designation. However, his play in Las Vegas may get him a look from other NBA teams needing frontcourt depth.

Crawford will be available after missing the first game of the regular season, but he won’t see the floor often for Houston this season.

Crawford was unavailable for the season opener, but even if he is available to take on Detroit, it is unlikely that he is part of the rotation this season.

Crawford was unlikely to be part of the Rockets’ rotation if he were deemed healthy enough to play. His absence does not impact fantasy basketball.

Crawford, limited during the preseason, may be available for Tuesday’s opener. However, his status does not impact the Rockets’ rotation or fantasy basketball. Leave him on the waiver wire.

Crawford’s injury will not impact fantasy basketball, as he is not in the Kings’ rotation.
