Houston Rockets backup point guard Kyle Lowry is out for one week with a sprained knee. Good thing the Rockets signed Vipers point guard Will Conroy to a 10-day contract hours before that injury, eh?
Well, Conroy's going to get what he both needs and deserves – a chance to prove he belongs. Conroy suddenly finds himself second on the point guard depth chart, behind only fellow-former Viper Aaron Brooks. It'll be interesting to see how much playing time Conroy gets. You don't figure it'll be what Lowry was getting, but Brooks isn't going to play 44 minutes every night. If Conroy can make some kind of impression during what appears to be his golden opportunity, perhaps he can parlay this into a second 10-day contract, or avoid that all together and go straight to a guaranteed contract for the rest of the season.
The ball's in his court.
