Howard questionable Wednesday after tweaking ankle in practice

Dwight Howard has been listed as questionable for the Houston Rockets' game against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. 

Howard initially sprained the right ankle Friday against the Phoenix Suns. He told media Sunday before sitting out against the Los Angeles Lakers that he would be "fine."

However, Howard apparently turned the ankle in practice on Tuesday, aggravating it.

Aside from a dip in his numbers - if there's one thing keeping the 29-year-old Howard out of All-Star consideration this season, it would be his absence in 13 of Houston's 45 games.
