Tate won't start Saturday's Game 1 against the Lakers, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports. Tate got the starting nod in Houston's regular-season finale with multiple key contributors out, though he will slide to the second unit Saturday. However, he could still see meaningful playing time due to Kevin Durant (knee) being sidelined.

Starting versus Memphis
Tate will start in Sunday's game against Memphis, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports. Tate will start in Sunday's game against Memphis. The 30-year-old has averaged 2.6 points, 1.5 rebounds, 0.5 assists, 0.1 blocks and 0.2 steals across 8.4 minutes per contest. However, the door is open for more statistical contributions, considering the Rockets are resting their usual starting cast.
Plays six minutes in return
Tate registered zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound over six minutes during the Rockets' 123-122 win over the Heat on Saturday. Tate was given the green light to return from a 14-game absence due to an MCL sprain in his right knee. All six of his minutes came in the third quarter, and Tate will likely see a cap on his minutes while working his way back to NBA-level conditioning.
