HOUSTON (AP) — Houston center Dwight Howard is out on Wednesday night against the Sacramento Kings.
Howard is healthy, but when he came back from a two-month absence because of swelling in his knee, the team said he wouldn't play both games of back-to-backs.
He will return on Thursday night when the Rockets play at Dallas.
Joey Dorsey will start in his place on Wednesday night.
