Rockets Waive Danuel House

[RealGM Wiretap]

The Houston Rockets have waived Danuel House.

House was in the final season of his contract and this move will allow him to find a new team before his free agency.

The Rockets will allocate House's minutes to younger players.

4.8 ppg 33.8% shooting and 29.4% from 3 in 14.6 mpg on a terrible team. Yikes!

I just copied and pasted. It was pretty easy. And yes, House is a success story. But a few years ago, when his team needed him, he held out for more than he was worth. It cost him part of what was possibly the most important season in his own career. It was that holdout that made this interesting to me. It's OK if you don't find it fascinating.
