The Houston Rockets are planning to waive Ben McLemore, sources told Shams Charania of The Athletic.


Several contenders are expected to be interested in McLemore.


The 28-year-old is averaging 7.4 points and 2.1 rebounds on the season.

Why would "several contenders" be interested in Ben McLemore? A guy with a career 9.6PER and negative career VORP who is getting dumped by the league's most hopeless team. I call fluff.

Because he just finished playing on a contender and was a very valuable piece on it. Duh.

Boston could use another wing :nonono:
