Rockets point guard Russell Westbrook likely will rest for the second half of Houston's back-to-back Monday against the Grizzlies.
Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni said before Sunday's game against the Heat that he expected to rest Westbrook for the next night's game.
But after Houston was routed 129-100 on Sunday night in Miami, D'Antoni left open the possibility that Westbrook could play Monday, responding "maybe" when asked about the former MVP's availability.
"You're going to see tomorrow," D'Antoni told reporters.
Westbrook played just 26 minutes Sunday night and struggled through his worst game as a member of the Rockets, finishing with season lows of 10 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds while committing a season-high seven turnovers.
Westbrook is averaging 21.2 points, 9.2 assists and 9.8 rebounds in six games this season, his first with Houston.
