Ryan Anderson missed the New Orleans Pelicans' last 14 games with yet another nagging injury. But despite a growing list of ailments, the veteran forward has landed a four-year, $80 million contract with the Houston Rockets.
Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical first reported terms of the agreement. Marc Stein of ESPN received confirmation from Octagon, which represents the power forward, that he chose Houston.
Anderson, 28, averaged 17 points and six rebounds per game last season, recovering from a dismal 2014-15 campaign to become a Sixth Man of the Year contender.
