He's only 19. If this is a character issue off the court, it's a shock to everyone. His floor is solid 3 and D player.
If it is a disciplinary issue then you could draw a picture of how Draconian the Spurs management is compared to the Rockets.
Wait did he get cut??? If so I'd take him. ::EDIT:: OK after reading some more I'm less inclined. Something effed up had to have happened.
The Rockets would have to have space to make a claim, correct? Would then need room to sign him. Probably unobtainable even if they were willing.
He isn't going to help anyone this season so I am second guessing if teams like the Lakers might pass him up.
He is what rebounding is about. The Spurs are a different organization from the Rockets. Maybe this could work
“Can a player who averaged 5.8 points per game in his first season and won’t open his second in the starting lineup become the face of an NBA franchise? The San Antonio Spurs appear to think so.” https://www.al.com/sports/2022/10/josh-primo-the-face-of-an-nba-franchise.html?outputType=amp This was only a week ago.
I think the best of two worlds would be best. Rockets are too loose and the Spurs at the other end of the extreme.
