Motiejunas is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Suns, Calvin Watkins of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Motiejunas didn't even see the floor during Wednesday's outing versus the Mavericks, as the Rockets decided to go small and started K.J. McDaniels at small forward in his place. Despite the recent DNP coach's decision on Wednesday, they've elected to move Motiejunas back into the starting lineup, although he'll likely still only see minutes in the high-teens-to-low-20's, which severely limits his fantasy potential.
