The Rockets are close to welcoming James Ennis back to the rotation. Depending on how he performs in practice, Ennis could return from a hamstring injury on Thursday to face the Warriors.

On Wednesday, The Athletic’s Kelly Iko provided an update on the injury status of both Ennis and Eric Gordon.

Gordon has already missed one game after suffering a bruised right knee in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s contest against the Pelicans.

Ennis, a serviceable two-way forward, has missed the Rockets’ last 10 games. Prior to his injury, Ennis was featured in coach Mike D’Antoni’s starting lineup on 22 occasions.

The Rockets will look to keep their solid streak of positive results rolling when they visit Oracle Arena to face the Warriors.
