“For any injury I suffer, my body is usually good at bouncing back,” Porter said Tuesday. “I thought I was going to be back faster than this."
Porter said Tuesday he is not participating in practices nor drills at the moment. Rockets head coach Stephen Silas noted Porter met with doctors Tuesday morning, and they will continue to "wait and see" for when Porter will be able to return.
The absence of Houston's point guard was followed by a rash of injuries in the lineup in recent games. The Rockets were without Porter, Jalen Green and Alperen u015eengün on Saturday in Detroit, and Silas was also not with the team as he attended the memorial service for his late father, Paul Silas.
