Woj: Rockets' Alperen Sengun dealing with sprained ankle and bone bruise in knee
Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun suffered injuries to both his ankle and knee, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
What It Means:
Sengun left Sunday's game in a wheelchair due to a right leg injury. While there was concern a truly serious injury occurred, it seems as though he avoided such a fate. Wojnarowski reports that the third-year center suffered "a severely sprained ankle and a bone bruise on his knee." It's unclear what the timeline for a return will be. As long as Sengun is out, expect more work for Jeff Green and Jock Landale.
In 63 games this season, Sengun is averaging 21.1 points, 9.3 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 43.0 FanDuel points.
