Beverley flew back to Houston on Tuesday to have the wrist evaluated and has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans in New Orleans.

“If the news is bad on Pat, he might be out awhile,” Rockets coach Kevin McHale said Tuesday, according to the Houston Chronicle. “We will find out the news on Pat, but the initial thought was that it might be bad. Hopefully it will be good news.”
