Rockets' McGrady sits with sore shoulder

Apr 9, 2008 - 11:59 PM HOUSTON (Ticker) -- Houston Rockets swingman Tracy McGrady will miss Wednesday's matchup against the Seattle SuperSonics with a sore left shoulder.

McGrady is averaging 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 5.8 assists for the Rockets (52-25), who are one-half game behind the Utah Jazz (52-26) for fourth place and home-court advantage in the Western Conference.

While McGrady watches from the sideline, teammate Rafer Alston returns to the rotations after missing the past three games due to a strained left hamstring.
