Hamstring strain is quickly becoming the two least favorite words in the English language for Houston Rockets fans. Chris Paul‘s hamstring strain in Game 5 of the 2018 Western Conference Finals cost the Rockets a shot at a championship. A strained hamstring also sidelined Paul and James Harden for three games each earlier this season.
It looks like we’ll have to add James Ennis to that list. Rockets head coach Mike D’Antoni told ESPN’s Tim MacMahon that James Ennis will miss “a few days” due to a hamstring strain. Ennis left Houston’s game against Portland late in the third quarter and never returned.
