[RealGM Wiretap]

The Houston Rockets have waived Bruno Caboclo.

The Rockets needed to create a roster spot to accept the incoming package of players as part of the James Harden trade.

Caboclo was the 20th overall pick in the 2014 NBA draft by the Toronto Raptors. 

Caboclo has appeared in six games this season.

...I don't want to be the first to say it.

So instead I'll say I googled him and he's now 25 years old. With a 7'7" wingspan!

Hard to believe he was drafted wayyyyy back in 2014. I remember talking to him in Eaton Centre in Toronto his second year in the league. He looked like a junior in high school.

Wait but he was 4 years from being 4 years away. That means this was his year! Big mistake from the rockets
