Kyle Wiltjer's shooting could help him land Rockets roster spot

Rockets rookie Kyle Wiltjer took a dribble handoff and moved toward a screen as a buzz began to fill the arena. The crowd in Toyota Center for a Sunday Fan Fest and public scrimmage might not have known the second line of a scouting report on Wiltjer, but it knew what comes first and immediately expected him to launch a 3.

Wiltjer did not disappoint. Less certain is whether he will be back.

The Rockets will take their final roster cuts to the deadline, needing to trim four players from the roster to get down to the maximum of 15.
