Houston Rockets head coach Stephen Silas has loved what he’s seen from rookie Jabari Smith Jr. as of late (averaging 24.7 PPG/11.0 RPG/2.7 APG/1.3 SPG/1.3 BPG/61.4% FG/62.5% 3-PT/76.9% FT during the last three games).

(via Houston Roundball Review):

“It’s great. The way he has bounced back from his rookie wall that he hit a little bit earlier and stayed with it and is finding confidence. I think everybody in the building sees the confidence that he has now on both ends of the floor. He’s not hesitating shooting the basketball, before he was shot faking and driving or turning down shots, and he’s not turning them down anymore.”

Stephen Silas after win over Boston: "It was a team win. It was a good team win."
