Two Houston Rockets stars, James Harden and Dwight Howard, are tentatively scheduled not to make the trip to face the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night, according to a source.
Harden suffered a bruised right knee in the first half of Sunday’s game against Orlando and missed the next game on Tuesday at Phoenix. Harden did make the trip to Phoenix, but not attending the game against the defending champs isn’t considered a big deal. Rockets officials want Harden to rehab and rest his knee. Howard has a sore back and missed the last two preseason games mainly as a precaution.
