Available Sunday Sengun (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Sengun will shed his questionable tag and return from a three-game absence due to a sprained right ankle. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see the star big man operate under a minutes restriction. Still, fewer minutes will be available for the likes of Steven Adams and Clint Capela with Sengun back in action.

Questionable for Sunday Sengun (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Head coach Ime Udoka said Monday that Sengun would likely miss around two weeks due to a right ankle sprain, though he has a chance to return Sunday after missing Houston's past three games. If the star big man is cleared to play, he'll likely be on a minutes restriction. Still, fewer minutes would be available for the likes of Steven Adams and Clint Capela.
