starting Houston Rockets forward Danuel House Jr. . did not play in the home game against Dallas on Monday night due to an earlier problem.
Head coach Stephen Silas said he found out about the problem with reporters at the Toyota Center just ahead of his pre-game media meeting. He didn’t say whether the injury could result in House missing more games.
« I just found out about the house affair, literally when I walked into this room, » Silas said before the game. “I wish I had a better answer. ”
After House paused, David Nwaba replaced him on the Houston grid against Dallas, alongside John Wall, James Harden, PJ Tucker and Christian Wood. Nwaba also started in place of Wall when he had to miss two games earlier in the season to quarantine.
House is a 6-foot-6 forward with an average of 7. 5 points and 4. 5 rebounds in 32. 5 minutes per game this season. The 27-year-old is also one of Houston’s most athletic and versatile defenders.
The next Houston game is Wednesday night in Indiana. As of Monday evening, House’s possible game status was unknown.
