Report: KJ McDaniels to miss playoffs with fractured wrist

The Houston Rockets will reportedly be without KJ McDaniels for the entirety of the NBA playoffs after he fractured his wrist in the final game of the regular season.

The rookie, who has averaged 7.9 points per game for Houston since being acquired in a trade with the Philadelphia 76ers, left the team's win over the Utah Jazz with his arm in a sling.

According to ESPN, the guard fractured his left wrist during Wednesday's game, and the injury is likely to stop him playing any part in the Rockets' post-season.

The Rockets face the Dallas Mavericks in the first round of the playoffs.
