Houston Rockets swingman Tracy McGrady

A big sigh of relief could be heard down in Houston Wednesday; according to SportsTicker, Houston Rockets swingman Tracy McGrady, who suffered an elbow injury during Wednesday night’s Los Angeles Lakers-Houston Rockets game, received a MRI immediately after leaving the Toyota Center and it indicated that McGrady suffered a sprain and some nerve irritation.

McGrady told the Ticker after the game, “There is a lot of inflammation around my elbow.? So right now it is day-to-day.? The doctors say it will be a week, but I don’t know. We’ll see.? It’s definitely good news because I actually thought it could have been a lot worse.? I couldn’t feel my fingers for a while.? It was very painful.? Right now I couldn’t play if I tried.”? Assuming that the week-long absence rings true, McGrady could be back as soon as November 21, when the Rockets host the Dallas Mavericks.
