Donatas Motiejunas (back) could make his return to the court in Saturday's game against the Spurs

Motiejunas (back) could make his return to the court in Saturday's game against the Spurs, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Motiejunas hasn't taken the court since December 29 due to soreness in his back. The Rockets were planning on dishing him to the Pistons during the trade deadline last week, but the deal was voided due to the Pistons' concern about the injury. If the 25-year-old is able to return on Saturday expect to see his minutes heavily monitored as he gets back into the swing of things.
