If you go by recent history, the Houston Rockets had a slow trade deadline. The one trade they did make was sending Daniel Theis back to the Celtics in exchange for Dennis Schroder, Bruno Fernandez, and Enes Freedom, who they quickly released.
At the time of the trade, the thought floating around the league was that Schroder would be bought out, considering he is in a contract year and could take time away from the Rockets’ young guards. However, a report from Marc Stein today seems to contradict those early reports.
Dennis Schroder is on course to finish the season in Houston, league sources say.
