As well as Briante Weber has played for the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, helping to lead the Rockets' G League affiliate to a five-game winning streak, he said his run as the Vipers' leading scorer did not make him ready for Wednesday's move to the Rockets. Weber said he always has been ready.
"I've been prepared," Weber said. "It's just about the opportunity. That's all it's about, me taking advantage of the opportunity when I get in. I've always been prepared. It's just basketball."
Weber, who has played 27 NBA games in two seasons with the Grizzlies, Heat, Warriors and Hornets, signed a two-way contract with the Rockets before the season.
