David Nwaba (ankle) could return for Rockets Thursday

Houston Rockets shooting guard David Nwaba has a "small chance" to play Thursday against the Memphis Grizzlies, per head coach Stephen Silas.

What It Means:

Nwaba will go through pregame warmups and see how he feels before a decision is made. Danuel House and Ben McLemore have seen upticks in playing time during Nwaba's two-game absence. Mason Jones has also made his way into the rotation.

numberFire’s models project Nwaba for 17.2 minutes and 12.3 FanDuel points versus the Grizzlies. He has a salary of $5,000 on Thursday’s five-game slate.
