Howard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Spurs, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Howard has missed the past three games after spraining his left ankle in last week's loss to the Pistons, but it appears he could be trending to a return. The Rockets will likely evaluate Howard's condition at Wednesday's morning shootaround before having a better idea if he'll be available later that evening. Howard's possible return would spell the end of the Rockets' small-ball lineup, as Corey Brewer would head to the bench while Trevor Ariza would move back to his more natural spot at small forward.
