Tracy McGrady returned to Houston's lineup Tuesday against Indiana after sitting out seven games with back spasms.

The Rockets were 2-5 without McGrady, who averaged 19.2 points, 6.3 assists and 5.6 rebounds a game. Now, Houston is missing leading scorer Yao Ming for six weeks after he fractured the bone under his right knee Saturday.

Pacers forward Jermaine O'Neal, meanwhile, was sitting out Tuesday's game with flu symptoms.
