A look back at Baron Davis's fine work off the dribble against the Hawks.
Zaza Pachulia is still listed as day-to-day with a foot injury and is expected to miss the remainder of the regular season.
Houston's already improved Iman Shumpert's shot. Is Landry Fields on his way as well?
Al Horford said over the weekend that he is about 70 percent sure that he will be able to make his return to the court during the first round of the playoffs.
