Chris Clemons, Houston Rockets
Season Stats: 5.9 points, 43.4% 3-point range
Clemons has produced for the Rockets when needed.
The former Campbell guard is two games removed from recording a career-high 19 points in a win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. With Eric Gordon out for the foreseeable future, the Rockets will likely turn to Clemons more, especially on the second night of a back-to-back when Russell Westbrook rests.
Off the bench last night, Chris Clemons ('15) scored 19 points in 28 minutes, lead the team with a +/- of 32, and shot 5-9 from beyond the arc as the Rockets defeated the Timberwolves.#ProWildcats pic.twitter.com/5zrpojJFtt

Signed to a two-way contract, Clemons has only one appearance in the G League this season so the Rockets may eventually be forced to sign Clemons to a standard NBA contract as they burn through his 45-day service time.
