Pistons' forward Antonio McDyess said after the Pistons' loss to the Rockets that his left ankle sprain is going to be fine.

The injury happened when he landed on Rasheed Wallace's foot in the fourth quarter, and afterward, McDyess went to the locker room and said the pain went away. He jogged to keep it warm and practiced cutting, too.

After getting the OK from strength and conditioning coach Arnie Kander, he returned to the game.

"I'm just hoping it doesn't swell, that's the only thing," he said. "It hurt more on the inside than anything. Hopefully it'll be better tomorrow."
