Dwight Howard: (Knee) Officially Questionable For Wed.

Howard (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Jenny Dial Creech of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Rockets coach Kevin McHale previously indicated that Howard will likely play, but it's no surprise to see the center officially listed as questionable. If Howard does suit up, which seems more likely than not, he will be limited to around 20 minutes. That rough limit may extend for the next couple of weeks, and McHale already said Howard won't play in both games of back-to-backs. It's quite clear the team's main priority is just to get Howard ready for the playoffs, which is very bad news for his owners.
