Houston Rockets: The undermining storyline of the James Ennis trade

Houston Rockets fans — the James Ennis III-era of basketball is now over in Houston. In a surprising move by general manager Daryl Morey, he has been shipped to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Shams Charania of The Athletic was the first to report on the deal sending the small forward up to the City of the Brotherly Love to try his hand at helping the Sixers get a tad closer in contending for an NBA title.

Shams indicated that the Houston Rockets will receive swap rights on a 2021 second-rounder in exchange for Ennis.
