P.J. Tucker (thigh) not expected to play for Rockets versus 76ers
Houston Rockets guard/forward P.J. Tucker (thigh) is not expected to play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, per head coach Stephen Silas.
What It Means:
Tucker is listed as questionable on the injury report but Silas says he's headed for a second straight absence. Meanwhile, Eric Gordon (groin) is more of a game-time decision, despite being listed as doubtful. Victor Oladipo (foot) remains doubtful. Look for David Nwaba and Jae'Sean Tate to take on additional minutes again with Tucker out.
numberFire's models believe Nwaba is a superior value than Tate on Wednesday's 10-game slate. Nwaba has a salary of $5,100 and is projected for 25.7 FanDuel points while Tate has a salary of $5,800 with the same projection.
