Houston Rockets guard James Harden will play Sunday at the Dallas Mavericks, after precautionary X-rays came back negative on his right wrist.
Harden, the NBA's scoring leader (36.6 points per game), aggravated the wrist injury on Friday night when he fell in the first half of a win over the Philadelphia 76ers.
He left briefly but returned and finished with 31 points in 32 minutes.
Harden, who is left-handed, first hurt the wrist on March 3 against the Boston Celtics.
He has missed just four games to injury this year, and only one since November 2.
"Just try to not fall on it," Harden told reporters about how he can take care of the wrist.
"That's the only thing I can do. Keep icing it, keep getting treatment on it. But when you keep falling on it, it keeps aggravating it and it keeps getting worse."
The Rockets, who are finally healthy elsewhere on the roster, have won seven straight games to move into third place in the Western Conference.
They sit three games back of Denver for the second spot and five games back of first-place Golden State.
