The Houston Rockets could use K.J. McDaniels in a trade before the deadline.


The Rockets were gauging the trade value of Corey Brewer at one point, but he's since moved back ahead of McDaniels in the rotation of Mike D'Antoni.


McDaniels signed a three-year, $10 million contract with the Rockets in the 2015 offseason.

They can have Okafor, Straight-up for him. KJ would be just as useful on the boards.

The 76ers need to give us Noel. We don't have the contracts to get an older C who is making good money already. I'd trade McDaniels, Dekker, and a 1st or maybe even 2 1sts. This Rockets team needs a proper big man on the boards, and it makes sense to overpay to get it.

The Kings backup C might be easier to get because the Kings might trade Gay and want 2 young SF's.

I Would go that route since it's more likely. Noel isn't going be moved easily if at all. Embiid and noel are good friends and he's finally getting PT. They could resign him and just get rid of Oakfor.

The more I think about it, Noel would be really good for the Rockets. I think that would be a good trade for both sides considering those 1st rd picks will most likely be in the far back end of the first round.

And I just really miss KJ's presence tbh. I dont know if he is ever going to be a player who plays more than 15-20 minutes a game, but I always liked the energy he brought whenever he came on the court.

This kid came into the league as a project. Still hopes he ends up in a good situation...
