The Houston Rockets were very successful at the trade deadline, as they landed Robert Covington, who they had long pursued and felt was a better fit for their desired style of play than Clint Capela. It didn’t take long for Covington to showcase his talents, as he made a tremendous difference in his first game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Aside from just Covington, the Houston Rockets were able to reel in Bruno Caboclo, who has the ability to provide the Rockets with size, defense, and yet another 3-point shooter.
