Christian Wood (ankle) remains out for Houston Thursday

Houston Rockets forward/center Christian Wood will not play Thursday in the team's game against the Sacramento Kings.

What It Means:

It was reported earlier in the day that Wood was not expected to play, so this comes as no surprise. Look for P.J. Tucker and Justin Patton to continue to get minutes at center as the Rockets try to break a 13-game losing streak.

In 17 games this season, Wood has averaged 22.0 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.5 blocks and 41.8 FanDuel points.
