Udoka: Houston's Fred VanVleet (back) expected to play on Wednesday
According to head coach Ime Udoka, Houston Rockets point guard Fred VanVleet (back) is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
What It Means:
VanVleet is expected to return after he was able to practice on Tuesday despite missing one game with a back injury. In a matchup versus a Portland team allowing 50.9 FanDuel points per game to point guards, our models project VanVleet to score 40.6 FanDuel points.
VanVleet's current projection includes 18.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 7.7 assists.
