It’s no secret that Mike D’Antoni is in his final contract season with the Houston Rockets, but his agent isn’t helping to make negotiations easy.

The Houston Rockets‘ negotiations with Mike D’Antoni have been highly publicized, and they reached a boiling point after the 2018-19 season. The Rockets offered D’Antoni an extension, but the two parties weren’t able to agree to terms, as D’Antoni’s agent, Warren LeGarie, intervened.

LeGarie deemed the Rockets’ offer to be significantly less than his client’s worth, which Rockets Owner Tilman Fertitta said was advantageous for the Rockets.
