Smith (calf) is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, Johnathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Smith sat out the fourth quarter of Friday's game against the Suns because of a cramp in his calf, but after a few days off for rest, he's good to go for Tuesday's matchup with the Jazz. He's expected to remain in the starting lineup and shouldn't have any restrictions barring any in-game aggravation to the calf injury. In 12 games with the Rockets this season, Smith is averaging seven points, 3.1 rebounds and two assists over 18 minutes.
