    With his playing time scarce and time running out on his contract, Rockets guard Luther Head was waived on Saturday to beat the deadline for players to be eligible for the postseason.

    Head will likely be replaced on the roster by high-scoring NBA Development League forward James White of the Anaheim Arsenal. The Rockets were close to signing White to a 10-day contract, a person with knowledge of the move said on Saturday, and White was held out of Saturday’s game.

    He must really suck. He'll be the most athletic player in the league and yet only on a 10 day contract.

    And... Luther Head isn't here anymore. What did you expect Gilbert Arenas lol we got a D-League guy that averages 26 points a game.

    So does this mean Brooks has disappointed? I doubt Lowry has been anything less than the team expected.

    White is a 6-7 swingman. Not sure where Brooks or Lowry comes into play.
