The Athletic’s Houston Rockets journalist, Kelly Iko, recently published a report of the team’s trade deadline notebook.
“The 26-year-old (Christian Wood) has been subject to interest around the league, and sources say Miami has been one of the more persistent teams in engaging with Houston on the versatile big man,” Kelly Iko reported.
The trade deadline is now less than 3 weeks away, and we’ve already seen some interesting trades. The Rockets are particularly not interested in bringing anyone to their roster, but they could pounce upon an opportunity if it pops up.
It is yet to be determined what will Miami Heat offer the Rockets for Wood. The next few days could be decisive for both the player and the Miami Heat.
