Cam Whitmore Returns to Rockets Lineup After Injury
Rockets Forward Cleared to Play Against Timberwolves
Houston Rockets forward Cam Whitmore is expected to make his return to the lineup on Wednesday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Whitmore has been sidelined since suffering a sprained ankle in the Rockets' season opener against the New Orleans Pelicans on October 19.
Overcoming Injuries, Doubts
Whitmore's return is a welcome boost for the Rockets, who have struggled to find consistency in his absence. Whitmore, a highly touted prospect who was selected 14th overall in the 2023 NBA Draft, is averaging 10.3 points and 4.8 rebounds per game this season.
The injury was a setback for Whitmore, who had been dealing with doubters and criticism about his injury history. Prior to joining the Rockets, Whitmore missed significant time in college due to knee injuries. However, he has shown determination and resilience in overcoming these challenges.
With Whitmore back in the lineup, the Rockets will be looking to improve their record of 3-11. The Timberwolves, who are 6-8, will provide a tough test for Houston.
