Goudelock lands in Houston from the Chinese Basketball Association where he was averaging 22.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 35 games. The Rockets aren’t strangers to looking for talent in the global leagues. Beverley was playing in Russia before wearing the Rockets’ red.
Goudelock is a stellar shooter from beyond the arc, something the Houston Rockets love and need. During his stint with the Los Angeles Lakers, Kobe Byrant named him, “Mini Mamba.” The addition of Goudelock should provided a nice dash of instant and consistent offense and sharpshooting, the kind Thornton was suppose to bring.
