With Houston on a 12-game winning streak and Ming being just one of six NBA players to be averaging 20 points and 10 rebounds per game this season, there hovers now a cloud of uncertainty over the rising hopes of Rockets fans and management for postseason success. The team learned the news just hours ago, before today’s shootaround, as they get ready to face the Washington Wizards at home.
The Yardstick for the game favors the home team to win by ten points.
