Houston interested in Nick Young

2018 NBA Finals - Game Four
Nick Young

The Houston Rockets are interested in Nick Young, according to Mark Berman of Fox 26 in Houston. One wonders how they are going to make it work, not just financially but also from a basketball-fit perspective, given Young's questionable defense and with the possibility that he could play next to Melo.

Houston has already lost Trevor Ariza and Luc Mbah A Moute, two wings who could contribute on both sides of the floor and certainly Young cannot replace either of them.

Young's contract with the Golden State Warriors was only a 1-year deal worth $5.1 million and it's highly unlikely that they are going to sign him. They currently have a roster worth $140 million with 12 players already signed. To make matters worse for Young, the Warriors signed DeMarcus Cousins for the same salary that they signed him last year.
