4 years agoHouston Rockets shooting guard/small forward David Nwaba (wrist) was expected to miss upwards of six weeks after undergoing wrist surgery, but in a turn of events, he has been deemed questionable to play in Friday's game against Utah. The move seems perfunctory at this stage, as the Rockets are extremely unlikely to thrust Nwaba into game action with his tag likely a means of reaching the eligible players limit, thereby not forfeiting the contest. Nwaba has averaged a career-high 9.4 PPG this season, shooting 48.1 percent overall, but he shouldn't be expected to take the floor and contribute for the foreseeable future.--Jesse Borek
