Rockets' Luc Mbah a Moute: Easing in after COVID-19 diagnosis
Luc Mbah a Moute, who revealed Monday that he previously tested positive for COVID-19, said he's been limited to one-on-one or two-on-two workouts since he was cleared to resume training with the Houston Rockets last week, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports. "I was sick. I had the COVID. I was actually sick and down for like 10 days, then recovering and all that stuff," Mbah a Moute said. "I had a lot of symptoms. It wasn't too bad to where I had to go to a hospital. Being down, fatigue, chills, cold, whatever, body aches, all that stuff - it was tough."Shortly after agreeing to a deal with the Rockets in early July to replace the opting-out Thabo Sefolosha at the NBA bubble, Mbah a Moute was stricken with a case of COVID-19, which delayed his arrival to Orlando. He was able to move past the symptoms about two weeks later, and after making the trip to Orlando and completing a quarantine process, Mbah a Moute has finally gotten the chance to join the team for workouts. However, because he has yet to see any action in the Rockets' exhibition contests and remains limited in practice, Mbah a Moute could be a candidate to sit out Friday's game against Dallas. Once he's deemed 100 percent, Mbah a Moute could push for a spot in coach Mike D'Antoni's rotation as a backup power forward or center.

Rockets' Luc Mbah a Moute: Could arrive in bubble Wednesday
Houston Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni said that Luc Mbah a Moute (undisclosed) has been cleared to travel and could arrive to the NBA's bubble in Orlando as soon as Wednesday, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.Assuming Mbah a Moute quickly passes through all health-related protocols once he goes into a brief quarantine after landing Orlando, he should be ready to practice with the team at some point over the weekend. After sitting out the entire 2019-20 season and only being added to the Houston roster earlier this month as a replacement for Thabo Sefolosha (opt out), Mbah a Moute may be rustier than most players in Orlando. Nonetheless, if he's back practicing in the next few days, he'll likely be available to the Rockets in a depth role for their first seeding game July 31 against the Mavericks.
