The Houston Rockets have been without one key piece of their rotation for the last two months, but coach Stephen Silas provided some promising news on the injury front when meeting with the media Tuesday afternoon.
Silas said forward Jae'Sean Tate is expected to make a return to the floor this week after being out of the lineup since Oct. 30 due to an ankle injury. Houston's coach noted Tate could make his return to the floor Thursday night against the Jazz at the Toyota Center, though he may sit out until Sunday night when the Rockets host the Timberwolves.
