    If I'm not mistaken, he's the first Iranian to possibly play for the Houston Rockets, correct?

    There's that Rockets-Rice connection again; Mikey Harris baby!

    But cool, let's see how it works out

    This guy can play. I remember watching him at Rice. But, he's very small for a power forward. I'm not sure how the Rockets want to use him. He didn't shoot the three in college.

    He has a similar skill set to Harrell.

    Great news.
    I love how Morrey never misses a chance to try to improve the roster and taking flyers on interesting players.

    I hope he sticks and plays also for the joy of watching the islamophobic trolls like Around the World trying to root for this guy.

    Another guy for to fight for a roster spot...

    Does mark Cuban even have a front office over there in Dallas or does he just watch morey snag players and waites for big FA to throw money at?
