Well, it was never gonna last (his anonymity, I mean). He was drafted in the second round by the Sonics, right? Then he was traded for a future second and cash.
But if he's a second rounder, then doesn't he have a 2-year contract?
Yeah, that's right, the Rockets have a team option for Landry after this season at a bit over 700k, and then if they pick that up, I think they have partial Bird rights for him when they try to re-sign him in the 09/10 season.
Despite what some websites may say, Landry will be a restricted free agent at the end of the season. They only gave him a very small one year deal to avoid luxury tax.
