Sengun delivered another quality fantasy season in 2024-25, as the Rockets evolved into a contender. However, the big man did things a bit differently compared to his breakout 2023-24 campaign, when he averaged a career-high 21.1 points per game on 53.7 percent from the field and 29.7 percent from deep. Last season, Sengun's efficiency dropped, shooting below 50 percent from the field for the first time since his rookie year while posting a career-low 23.3 percent mark from deep. He offset that drop with an increase in rebounds (10.3 per game) and regular-season appearances (76), both career highs. Sengun has missed 10 or fewer games in three of his first four campaigns and has never missed 20 or more games in a regular season. Despite ascending the standings, the Rockets flamed out in the playoffs and made major changes this offseason. They shipped Dillon Brooks, Jalen Green and Cam Whitmore out, while bringing in Kevin Durant, Dorian Finney-Smith and Clint Capela. With Capela and Steven Adams in town, Sengun won't need to play Knicks-type minutes every night, but he'll remain a focal point of Houston's budding offense, which returns Fred VanVleet, Amen Thompson, Jabari Smith and Tari Eason. Sengun is a high-floor pick with significant upside if the team around him can be more efficient in Year 5, which is expected to be the case with Durant leading the charge.
