Jae'Sean Tate

Tate was picked up by the Rockets last season after going undrafted, and his level of production was unexpected. He started 58 of his 70 appearances for Houston, and his performances really started to pick up in early February. From Feb. 4 onward, the forward averaged 12.6 points on 50/31/70 shooting, 5.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.4 steals in 30.6 minutes. He ranked 118th in per-game fantasy production, but his availability allowed him to rank a surprising 75th in total production. His role figures to be reduced heading into 2021-22. The Rockets drafted promising rookie Jalen Green with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 draft, and he figures to start at either shooting guard or small forward next to Kevin Porter. The additions of Daniel Theis and Alperen Sengun also complicate Tate's ability to play in the frontcourt. Danuel House and Eric Gordon will also be vying for minutes on the wing. All things considered, it seems likely that Tate's production will take a step back. He should go undrafted in standard leagues but could function as a decent pickup if the Rockets start to deal with injuries.
