3 years agoThe Houston Rockets will deploy the duo of Armoni Brooks and Josh Christopher as their starting backcourt for Monday's matchup vs. the Hornets. With both Jalen Green (rest) and Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh) active but not expected to play, Brooks and Christopher should be in line for a sizable increase in both minutes and offensive usage. Brooks has enjoyed a solid run in December, averaging seven three-point attempts per game despite having a fluctuating role. Christopher will be making just his second professional start, having logged 10 points and seven assists across 28 minutes in his first go-round. With Charlotte and Houston boasting the second and third-fastest pace of play in the league, respectively, DFS managers can hone in on what should be a scintillatingly paced matchup.--Jesse Borek
