Oladipo is currently dealing with a foot injury, which has caused him to miss each of the Rockets’ past three games. There was some hope that he’d be able to return to the lineup on Monday, but he’s been officially ruled out.
DeMarcus Cousins has also been ruled out for this contest. He and the Rockets have reportedly agreed to part ways, but he was initially expected to suit up in this contest. Christian Wood remains out of the lineup, so the Rockets will be extremely thin at center with both players inactive. That said, P.J. Tucker is on track to suit up after missing the past two games with a foot injury.
