Rockets' Terrence Jones released from hospital after suffering collapsed lung

Houston Rockets power forward Terrence Jones has been released from hospital and his condition is improving after suffering a partially collapsed lung during Thursday's win over the Denver Nuggets. 

Jones is expected to miss at least one week in order to recover.  

The 23-year-old, in his third season in the league, has been limited to 25 games. He missed 41 contests earlier in the season after sustaining nerve inflammation in his left leg. 

Jones responded with big numbers since getting deployed into the Rockets' starting unit. Over his last 13 games, 12 of which were starts, he averaged 15.2 points, nine rebounds, 1.5 blocks and converted on 55.5 percent of his shots from the field. He double-doubled in six of those games.
