The Houston Rockets decided to sign guard Austin Rivers yesterday after it was apparent that more guard depth was needed. Chris Paul went down a couple of games ago with a hamstring strain and will be sidelined for at least a couple of weeks, giving Rivers the opportunity to come in and really contribute to the team.
Unfortunately, Brandon Knight isn’t quite getting the job done for the team right now. He may eventually become the player he once was, a guy who averaged nearly 20 points a game, but for now, he is still rusty and not quite 100%.
