The Houston Rockets will be minus one guard for the foreseeable future as the Associated Press reports that Steve Francis will be out indefinitely from what is described as “bi-lateral quadricep tendinitis”.? He had already been sidelined since December 20 due to a bout of the flu and is not expected to accompany the team on its road trip to Boston and Orlando starting Wednesday.? Francis, a 9-year veteran, has been going through a tough season so far, only appearing in 10 games; he is averaging a career-low 5.5 PPG and 3.0 APG.
