Ryan Anderson (ankle) could return for Rockets in Game 2
Houston Rockets forward/center Ryan Anderson (ankle) has a "real good shot" at playing in Game 2 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni.
D'Antoni added that Anderson will "definitely" be ready for Game 3 in Minnesota. He missed the final four games of the regular season and the Rockets' Game 1 victory but should see plenty of minutes upon return while helping make up for Luc Mbah a Moute's (shoulder) absence.
Anderson averaged 18.1 FanDuel points with 9.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.0 treys in 26.2 minutes per game during the regular season.
