Alperen Sengun left Houston’s 110-104 loss to Dallas after spraining his right ankle 1:04 into the game and did not return. Dallas also lost starter P.J. Washington Jr. to a sprained right ankle. Sengun landed awkwardly after a rebound and was helped off, while Houston were already without Steven Adams. Dallas ruled Washington out after the first quarter, with both teams hit early by ankle injuries in the same game.
