Amen Thompson Sidelined for Wednesday's Game with Quadriceps Tendinitis

Houston Rockets guard Amen Thompson has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings due to left quadriceps tendinitis. The team is reportedly taking a cautious approach, especially as the game is the first of a back-to-back. Reed Sheppard is the most likely candidate to replace Thompson in the starting lineup, which could boost his fantasy value. Thompson's absence adds to the Rockets' injury list, which also includes Jae'Sean Tate, who is out for 4-6 weeks.
