According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey is “showing an aggressive desire to improve roster” and that “all players and picks available.” While James Harden is likely all but untouchable, but the same may not hold true for Chris Paul as “even Chris Paul could be moved in the right deal.”
Marc Stein of the New York Times reports that center Clint Capela “is among the players Houston has gauged the market for in recent days.”
As Houston lacks cap flexibility, moving some of their more prominent players is the only way they can improve their roster and obtain some financial flexibility.
