Brooklyn Nets rumors: Kenneth Faried headed to Houston after buyout

After being bullied on the boards by the Brooklyn Nets in an overtime loss Wednesday night, it appears the Houston Rockets are going to address the issue by adding someone from the Nets.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, veteran Kenneth Faried has agreed to a buyout in order to sign with the Rockets.

Faried, acquired last July along with Darrell Arthur, a protected 2019 first-round pick and a 2020 second-round selection from the Denver Nuggets in exchange for Isaiah Whitehead, was in the final year of a four-year, $50 million rookie-scale extension he had signed with the Nuggets in 2014.
