Ryan Anderson

Ryan Anderson (ankle) likely out for Rockets on Tuesday

Houston Rockets forward/center Ryan Anderson will "probably" be out for Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors, coach Mike D'Antoni said.

What It Means:

"I hate it for Ryan," D'Antoni said. "I hate that he's not here. But we have enough to cover it up." Anderson has already been ruled out for Sunday's game and he currently doesn't have a timetable to return. With Anderson out, the Rockets will likely have to play more small ball with Trevor Ariza at the four, and D'Antoni mentioned that Lou Williams, Eric Gordon and Sam Dekker will likely see a bump in minutes.

Our algorithms project Ariza for 11.7 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 34.1 minutes tonight.
