John Wall (knee) out for Rockets until at least Saturday
Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (sore left knee) is out for at least the next two games, per head coach Stephen Silas.
What It Means:
Wall had already been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns and he will remain out Friday versus the Detroit Pistons. Silas admitted that the Rockets are taking a cautious approach with the veteran guard after two years off the court. Victor Oladipo should continue to lead the offense while Wall is out. He led Houston with 32 points on Wednesday in his first game with the team.
numberFire’s models project Oladipo for 37.2 FanDuel points versus the Suns and he has a salary of $7,900 on Wednesday’s slate. Oladipo reeled off 50.5 FanDuel points on a 43.3 percent usage rate in his first game with the Rockets.
