Jock Landale Questionable for Rockets’ Game Against Celtics on January 3rd with Right Knee Sprain
Jock Landale is facing uncertainty about his availability for the Houston Rockets due to a right knee sprain. The injury has made him questionable for their upcoming game against the Boston Celtics on January 3rd. This is the first time Landale has dealt with an injury this season.
What It Means
The Houston Rockets might need to adjust their lineup if Jock Landale cannot play. He has been averaging 3.1 points and 2.7 rebounds per game this season. His shooting accuracy stands at 42% from the field and an impressive 42.9% from beyond the arc.
If Landale misses the game, Alperen Sengün and Steven Adams will likely see more minutes at center. Sengün is leading in points per game among centers on the team, while Adams provides solid backup support. The team will need to strategize accordingly to fill in any gaps left by Landale’s potential absence.
