Fred VanVleet Set to Return For Rockets Preseason Finale

Houston Rockets veteran floor general Fred VanVleet is in line to play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Oklahoma City Thunder after previously sitting out for rest. Coming off a torn ACL, VanVleet is expected to be eased into action by playing around one half of the exhibition contest before head coach Ime Udoka hands things over to some of Houston's non-guaranteed rotation pieces for the final tune-up before the regular season.
