Rockets' Sam Dekker: Says he's 100 percent healthy

Dekker (back) announced via Twitter on Monday that he's 100 percent healthy.

Analysis:

Back issues limited Dekker to only three games as a rookie, but he tweeted Monday that he's "100% cleared 100% healthy with zero restrictions." That certainly bodes well for Dekker as he enters his first full NBA offseason with the expectation that he'll be ready to be a regular contributor off the bench in 2016-17. Dekker also noted that he'll play for the Rockets' entry in the Las Vegas Summer League, an event his ailing back forced him to miss last summer.
