Coach Mike D'Antoni reiterated Wednesday that Beverley (knee) remains on track to start Thursday against the Trail Blazers, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Beverley is yet to play this season following an arthroscopic procedure on his knee last month. He'll remain out against Oklahoma City on Wednesday but will make his debut Thursday and will unseat Eric Gordon in the starting lineup. The Rockets have found success utilizing James Harden at point guard in Beverley's absence, and Harden will likely continue to serve as the team's primary ball-handler, with Beverley taking on even more of a defense-oriented role.

Beverley (knee) will likely make his season debut Thursday against the Trail Blazers and is expected to immediately retain his role as the team's starting point guard, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Beverley has missed the entire season thus far while working back from a knee injury, but is now expected to make his season debut Thursday. Coach Mike D'Antoni already indicated that he'll insert Beverley back into the starting five, meaning Eric Gordon is expected to return to a bench role. Beverley is usually relied upon more for his defensive capabilities, rather than his body of work offensively, which should limit his overall fantasy potential on most nights.

Beverley (knee) is targeting a return for either Wednesday's game against the Thunder or Thursday's matchup with the Trail Blazers, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was reported late last week that Beverley was nearing a return to the court, so this is only further confirmation that he's almost at full strength. Beverley won't be available for Monday's game against the Sixers, but the hope is that he can make his season debut on either Wednesday or Thursday. That said, he'll likely be eased into action and could be on a minutes restriction for a few games while getting his condition in order. It also remains to be seen what kind of role Beverley is slated to have now that James Harden has taken over ball-handling duties.

Beverley (knee) could return to practice next week and start playing by the end of the month, Calvin Watkins of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Beverley had surgery in October on his left knee and was set to miss about three weeks. After being reevaluated Thursday, he's predicted to be ready to start practicing within a week and hopefully start participating in games by the end of November. Although he was targeting a mid-November season debut, it appears as if Beverley is going to require a little extra rehabilitation time in order to be at full health coming into his 2016-17 campaign.

Beverley (knee) will be reevaluated on Thursday when the Rockets return to Houston, Calvin Watkins of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Beverley underwent surgery on his left knee at the end of October and was slated to miss roughly three weeks of action. It's been just over two weeks since that operation and he's started doing some light shooting and running during his rehab sessions, so he appears to be making steady progress. That said, the team expects to reevaluate Beverley Thursday, which should give a better indication on whether or not he'll stay true to his original three-week timeline. Also, it remains to be seen what kind of role he'll have when at full strength, as the Rockets could keep James Harden as the team's primary ball-handler.

Beverley (knee) said Sunday that he's hoping to make his season debut between Nov. 15 and Nov. 21, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

After undergoing surgery on his left knee last Tuesday, Beverley was given a three-week recovery timetable, so his targeted return date would seemingly align with that. He's not far along enough in the recovery process yet to predict with any confidence that he'll reach that goal, so fantasy owners speculating on him hitting the early end of that timetable may want to temper their expectations. In addition to the injury concern, Beverley figures to see a decline in his role once he returns, as coach Mike D'Antoni seems content to proceed with James Harden as his primary point guard.

Beverley (knee) underwent successful surgery on Tuesday and is expected to be out three weeks, Calvin Watkins of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Beverley will begin the season on the bench as he nurses his knee after undergoing arthroscopic surgery. With Pablo Prigioni's surprise release earlier in the week, Tyler Ennis will be the main backup behind James Harden, who is taking over point guard responsibilities this season under new head coach Mike D'Antoni. Look for Beverley's injury to be reassessed in a couple weeks.

Beverley (knee) is set to undergo arthroscopic surgery Tuesday and is expected to be sidelined for four-to-six weeks, Jonathan Feigen of The Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Back on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports suggested that Beverley would need to miss only three weeks, but a four-to-six week timetable would seem to align with Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni's earlier claim that the point guard would miss at least 20 games. The Rockets are set to reevalute Beverley in mid-November, at which point it will likely be determined if he'll be out for the shorter or longer end of that recovery timetable. In the meantime, Pablo Prigioni will move up to the second spot on the depth chart at point guard, but he's unlikely to see a dramatic spike in playing time with James Harden expected to see 35-to-40 minutes per game.

Beverley plans to undergo a minor surgical scope on his left knee next week and is expected to miss three weeks, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Mike D'Antoni estimated Friday that Beverley would likely miss at least 20 games regardless of what treatment method he chose for the sore knee, but Wojnarowski's report paints a more optimistic outlook for the point guard. Even so, the three-week timetable would put Beverley on course to miss about 10 games, and it's far from a given that he'll be ready to go by mid-November, as he'll still have to regain conditioning after missing almost all of the preseason. Beverley's absence theoretically allows Pablo Prigioni and Tyler Ennis to climb up a peg on the depth chart, but there's a good possibility that backcourt starters Eric Gordon and James Harden just take on even more ball-handling responsibilities in the interim.

Beverley (knee) is expected to miss at least 20 games to start the regular season, Calvin Watkins of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Head coach Mike D'Antoni revealed this news Friday evening, and admitted the injury "complicates" things as the team attempts to make its final roster cuts. A 20 game absence would equate to roughly 5-6 weeks on the sideline for the guard. Pablo Prigioni and Tyler Ennis figure to compete for James Harden's primary back up role at point guard, while Eric Gordon and K.J. McDaniels could see an increased workload in the backcourt.
