Dwight Howard dealing with problems in his right knee

Just a couple weeks after dealing with a swollen sore left knee, Rockets center Dwight Howard is now having a similar issue with his right knee.

In the first quarter of the Rockets home opener win over Boston on Saturday night, Howard said he either bumped knees or was kicked by another player and his knee immediately swelled up.

He stayed in the game and played 33 minutes total but said the soreness did not subside.
