The NBA Draft came and went Thursday night.
The Rockets, holding just the 46th pick going in, selected USC guard De’Anthony Melton and then picked up the 52nd pick from Utah for cash, nabbing Purdue forward Vincent Edwards.
However, with NBA free agency set to begin and trades being the most likely avenue to bolster the squad, general manager Daryl Morey may have given out a hint on a potential strategy the Rockets are looking at to improve.
Morey said late last night that the Rockets were never close to moving up in the draft, but he did discuss a “larger deal” that was a possibility on draft night.
