    His buyout cost is around 3 million Euros. Rockets have to pay $750.000 and Garuba'll pay the rest himself.

    Anyone else watching? Garuba's checked in and immediately gobbled up Tatum's point blank shot attempt.

    Missed a couple of 3s but at least he's not scared of firing away. His defense has been stellar!
