The Rockets reportedly continued their summer spending spree on Saturday afternoon, one evening after agreeing to a massive three-year, $130 million contract with former Toronto point guard Fred VanVleet.
Houston then reportedly reached an agreement on a contract with former Memphis wing Dillon Brooks on Saturday afternoon, though the terms of that deal have yet to be reported. And just after the Brooks addition, general manager Rafael Stone and Co. reportedly added one less-heralded player. Meet Jock Landale, Houston's new $32 million man.
The background
You're forgiven for not being totally familiar with Landale, a 27-year-old center who just signed a four-year deal with the Rockets (with only the first year guaranteed).
