Going up against the world-beating Memphis Grizzlies without All-Star center Dwight Howard? Not a problem when you're the Houston Rockets, who have Joey Dorsey at the ready.

Wait, Joey Dorsey?

Joey Dorsey.

Dorsey entered play Wednesday with just 16 points and seven blocks in 101 minutes on the season, but made his presence felt in a big way, right from the get-go. 

He had an emphatic jam early against the Grizzlies, and later started a fast-break with a block and finished the play with a dunk at the other end.

Dorsey's mini-outburst speaks to how the Rockets have managed a 2-3 record without Howard, with a handful of deep reserves contributing in smaller ways.
