The Houston Rockets are gearing up for the playoffs, as they only have 20 games remaining on the schedule before the postseason starts. This means the Rockets ought to be loading up on players they believe can help improve their title chances, which explains their interest in former Houston Rockets forward Luc Mbah a Moute.
The Rockets would have to create a roster spot to add anyone, as they currently have 15 players on the payroll. This would be an easy problem to solve, as they could release developmental players such as Chris Clemons and Isaiah Hartenstein, who aren’t getting any playing time.
