Rockets' Eric Gordon: Expects to practice Tuesday, play Wednesday

Gordon (ankle) expects to play in Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Gordon sprained an ankle during Monday's game against the Celtics, but the Rockets apparently don't view it as a serious issue. He expects to practice Tuesday, and if all goes well, he'll likely be cleared to suit up in Wednesday's tilt with the Lakers.
