The Houston Rockets were widely regarded as having had the best offseason in the entire NBA, but one move that many questioned was the decision to move on from Cam Whitmore after just two seasons. The decision to trade Whitmore in a three-team deal made some sense. The former first-rounder wasn't developing on a deep Rockets roster that only added more talent to the rotation during the offseason, so sending him to a place where he can thrive was admirable.
However, Whitmore showed flashes in the preseason for the Washington Wizards, and there is a very good chance that he will prove himself to be a solid player on his new team.
