With the Houston Rockets not having any draft picks during the 2019 NBA Draft, Rockets’ General Manager Daryl Morey knew he had his work cut out as it pertained to adding players at a low cost. Morey took a flyer on undrafted rookie Chris Clemons, who starred in the Summer League and averaged 20.8 points per game on 43.1 percent from 3-point range. When given the opportunity, Clemons has continued his stellar play, which should have been enough to land him significant playing time.
Unfortunately Clemons has only played 8.2 minutes per game, despite the fact that the rookie guard has shot 39.
