Tarik Black leaves Rockets' game with eye abrasion
Houston Rockets forward/center Tarik Black exited Wednesday's matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers with a right eye abrasion, finishing with 13 points, five rebounds and two steals in 15 minutes.
What It Means:
Black won't have to go through the league's concussion protocol, so this shouldn't force him to miss much time. Before leaving, Black turned in 13 points (6-of-8 field goals, 1-of-2 free throws), 5 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 turnovers in 15 minutes.
Black finished with 23.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday.
