After the Houston Rockets converted Chris Clemons‘ two-way contract to a standard NBA deal, it left them with one remaining roster spot, which was essentially the backfill for Clemons’ two-way spot. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Rockets signed 26 year-old forward William Howard of the Salt Lake City Stars to fill that void. This left many Rockets’ fans curious as to who Howard is and what he brings to the table.
For starters, we have to recognize that Howard is unlikely to play that many minutes, because we know Mike D’Antoni isn’t known to play deep into his bench.
