Although Daryl Morey’s reasons for leaving the Houston Rockets have been proven inaccurate, he’s seemingly gotten away with quitting on the Rockets while they remain at their most vulnerable state.

Former Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey made headlines when he announced that he would be parting ways with the Rockets franchise after 14 years with the organization. The former mathematician immersed himself as one of the best executives across the league during his tenure in Houston, and certainly within the history of the Rockets franchise, which made news of his exit more painful for Rockets fans.
