When asked about the status of Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Luc Mbah a Moute, Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni said he expects the trio to arrive in Orlando 'soon', and is under the impression that they will arrive by the 'middle of the week'. (Jonathan Feigen on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
D'Antoni went on to say, "They're working in their home base. They'll be ready to go 5-on-5 when they get in here. I think by the time the eight games are over, there won't be any effect." This is definitely good news for fantasy owners, as it is still unclear why Westbrook, Harden and Mbah a Moute did not accompany the team down to Orlando on Thursday. Regardless of the issue, fantasy owners can now breathe knowing that it isn't anything too serious. More should come to light as the trio make their official return sometime this week.
