Brandon Knight (knee) probable for Rockets Thursday
Houston Rockets guard Brandon Knight (knee) is probable for Thursday against the Los Angeles Lakers.
What It Means:
Knight hasn't played in an NBA game since February 15 of the 2017 season, so the Rockets will likely take it slow and ease him into a full workload. That said, James Ennis (hamstring) just went down for 1-2 weeks, so Houston can use the depth.
numberFire's models only project Knight for 4.8 points, 2.1 rebounds, 0.7 assists, and 0.5 3-pointers in 12.1 minutes per game this season.
