Returns from G League
Sheppard joined the Vipers for a three-game stint after losing his spot in the Rockets rotation. He was a standout performer in his first taste of G League action, averaging 30.7 points, 7.3 assists, 5.0 three-pointers, 4.7 rebounds and 2.7 steals in 35.5 minutes per contest. Despite the stellar showing in the G League, the rookie No. 3 overall pick is uncertain to take back a spot in the Houston rotation in Monday's game against the Grizzlies.
