    [rQUOTEr]PHILADELPHIA - Temple guard Will Cummings has agreed to terms on a free agent contract with the Houston Rockets of the NBA.

    Cummings, who led the Owls in scoring (14.8 ppg), assists (4.2 apg) and steals (1.9 spg), ended his career with 1,245 points (35th all-time at TU), 357 assists and 159 steals. He also finished tied second with Hal Lear (1955-56) on Temple's single season list for free throws made with 189, 15 behind former teammate Khalif Wyatt's record 204 set during the 2012-13 season.

    The 6-2 guard was a first team All-American Athletic Conference and all-Philadelphia Big 5 selection, and was instrumental in leading Temple to the nation's best turnaround. The Owls (26-11) finished their season with 17 more wins than the previous season (9-22). UC Davis had the second best turnaround at +16 wins.

    The Jacksonville, Fla. native also was honored as Temple's co-Male Student-Athlete of the Year, sharing the honor with honorable mention All-American Brandon Matthews.[/rQUOTEr]

    Really looking forward to the Wood/Cummings combo.

    And there's our point guard!

    (Probably a D-League rights signing but whatever)

    Further proving Morey's statement that Rockets are a destination franchise.

    Cashing in on such big names - Morey for GM of the year already

    Finally we get a guard so Harden can move back to his normal 6th man role off the bench.

    His stats are pretty awful lol

    shot 40 and 21% fg/3pt, not a great passer either

    Almost 23 years old

    Whatever it takes to fill up the summer league roster! :)

    I like the Cummings pick up. Hope he continues working on his defense.

    The trend is pretty obvious. Morey has gotten a brazzers / bangbros subscription this off season.

    In all seriousness, the Rockets are picking up the kind of Summer League additions that usually go to teams where they think they can get an invite to training camp at least. Maybe Morey sold them on contending for a D-League title.
