Pacers target Friday for Danny Granger's return

Pacers coach Frank Vogel announced that the Indiana Pacers have marked Friday against the Houston Rockets as Danny Granger's possible return date.

"We targeted Friday. It's good news. I had a good practice today, I practiced yesterday, I'll (practice) tomorrow," Granger said. "We just want to get some practice under my belt before I'm on the court."

Granger, who is recovering from a left calf strain, has missed every game in the Pacers' 20-3 start this season.
