Teams like the Houston Rockets that have clinched their playoff seed only have one clear goal for their final two games: make it through without any injuries. Unfortunately that did not happen.
Luc Mbah a Moute suffered a dislocated right shoulder during the second quarter of the Rockets’ game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night. He was driving to the basket for a dunk and his shoulder got popped out.

Mbah a Moute was taken into the locker room, and it didn’t take long for the Rockets to announce that he was out for the game with the dislocation.
Mbah a Moute dislocated his shoulder on a similar play in December and missed about a month. Houston may now be faced with losing the forward for the first few rounds of the playoffs.
