Patrick Beverley will see Dr. James Andrews on Monday and surgery to remove part of his torn meniscus has not been discussed in recommendations from Andrews and the Houston Rockets' doctors.

Beverley said he could be out 10 to 14 days or up to four weeks and believes he will "for sure" return at some point this season.

“No one was going to remove anything,” Beverley said. “We haven’t even discussed surgery yet. It looks to the point I think I might not have to get surgery. We don’t know.

"I feel pretty good. I feel like I knocked knees with somebody. It hurt a lot the first day. I don’t really feel a lot of pain today, which is a good sign. No swelling. So I’m going to go see the best knee doctor in the country. I spoke to him on the phone. He has seen it. It really looks good. We’ll see how long it lasts.

“I don’t feel a lot of pain, which is a great thing. No swelling, which is a great thing. It wasn’t in the same area a lot of players tore their meniscus. I feel pretty confident about it. I know how my body reacts to certain things. I know how I feel. I feel great. I feel like if I put on the brace I’ll be all right to play today. We have to get his opinion and see where we go from there. If I feel healthy, I’m going to play.”

Beverley is listed as day-to-day by the Rockets.
