Nene explains why he decided to return to the Houston Rockets
Nene signed a one-year deal to return to the Houston Rockets. The big man out of Brazil says he decided to return because the organization has been so good to him.
On June 29, Nene declined his $3.83 million option to return to the Houston Rockets for another season. At 36 years old, Nene was unlikely to make more than that anywhere else, especially with his injury history. It looked like he was either going to retire or chase a ring with a different contender.
Fortunately, Nene wanted to stay in Houston.
