The Houston Rockets made a roster move this morning, sending TyTy Washington back to their G-League affiliate the Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Washington has played 11 games since being recalled from the Vipers in early December. Since returning, Washington averaged a little over 3 points per game in limited minutes. Washington had the best game of his career at Boston on December 27 when he scored 10 points and grabbed 5 rebounds.
Washington did not play in the Rockets' last game, a loss to the Utah Jazz, and it may have been because of the return of Jae’Sean Tate, who had missed the prior 31 games.
