    Is lowering his price more important than having someone who can guard Clippers guards?

    He's been dressed in uniform the last two games that I can recall.

    I haven't seen that. From what I remember I think he fractured his wrist right before the playoffs? Not 100% sure, but I remember reading that somewhere.

    True. I was wondering why he was.

    McDaniels is legitimately injured. Hurt himself late in the regular season finale versus Utah. He's out for the playoffs. And even if he wasn't injured, I doubt he'd play over anyone who is currently in the rotation.

    Also, while there is some benefit to be had this summer by lowering his market value right now, there is no freaking way the Rockets would knowingly hurt their chances of advancing in these playoffs by not playing a healthy player on their roster.

    I saw him in warmups and he was dressed and wondered if he was close to getting back. Does anyone have a update on our injured players?

    went to the games and saw the same thing that he was in uniform but possibly might just have to do with having enough players dressed? but i do remember the rockets ruled him out for the playoffs

    Before the playoffs started they said he was out the rest of the season. He was in street clothes for the entire Dallas series. But he has been dressed to play for the whole Clippers series so far. Not sure if he is able to play or not.

    I don't think it even lowers his price. GMs are not like fans with goldfish memory. Especially when this is the year to spend all the money and lock up guys in long contracts.

    i have watched in him warmups he never dribbles with his right hand or shoots hes not ready to play. Guess he could be a designated hack a Jordan player if we got super thin with foul trouble.
