San Antonio Spurs forward Julian Champagnie (ankle) is expected to play on Tuesday against the Houston Rockets, per head coach Gregg Popovich.
Popovich said "he thinks" Champagnie will return to the starting lineup after sitting out last game. Malaki Branham will likely move back to the bench after filling in.
numberFire's models project Champagnie for 20.1 minutes and 16.3 FanDuel points on Tuesday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Spurs' implied total (109.75) is No. 7 out of 16 teams on the Main slate.
