Brandon Knight sits out Rockets-Magic game with sore knee

ORLANDO, Fla. - Rockets guard Brandon Knight sat out Sunday's game with a sore left knee, an issue that was not unexpected in his comeback after missing a season and a half following knee surgery.

"I guess it's just part of it, being more active, doing more things," Knight said. "I've never had a knee injury before. I'm trying to feel my way through the process."

Knight has played in 12 games with the Rockets, making just 11 of 47 shots. But he had played more regularly in the six games prior to sitting out on Sunday since the injury to Eric Gordon, looking more confident in recent games.
