Houston Rockets center Yao Ming returned to action after missing 32 games for a fractured right leg on March 5 when Chinadaily.com.cn also launched its dedicated to page to Yao Ming.
Yao Ming returned to action for the Houston Rockets on Monday night after missing 32 games while recovering from a broken bone under his right knee.
The Houston Rockets were defeated at home Saturday night in local time, but they lost more than just a game in a mental collapse where the team's fragile chemistry seems to be totally absent.
Yao Ming was cleared to play Monday against the Cavaliers, moving to the active roster for the first time since he fractured the tibia in his right leg Dec. 23 in a collision with Tim Thomas against the Los Angeles Clippers.
"He may not play well right away. He voiced his concerns about he doesn't want to come back and hurt us. I don't think he should worry. He is a good guy, obviously, worrying about breaking up a chemistry. But we could use him."
Yao Ming moved a 7-foot-6 step closer to returning the court, possibly by Monday's game at Cleveland.
Duncan scored 26 points and the San Antonio Spurs beat the Houston Rockets 97-74 on Saturday night for their season-high eighth straight victory.
Yao Ming's return to the National Basketball Association from a broken right leg might take longer than expected, Houston Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy said.
The fact that the Huston Rockets have a better record without their All-Star center can naturally lead to the conclusion that Yao is not important to the team, but is he?
