Fred VanVleet Out for Rockets' Game Against Timberwolves Due to Ankle Injury

Fred VanVleet is out with a right ankle strain and will miss the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This injury continues a trend, as he has been dealing with ankle issues and was previously considered week-to-week.

This season, VanVleet has played 44 games, averaging 14.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game. His absence could affect other players like Aaron Holiday and Jalen Green, as the Rockets adjust their lineup without him.
