Willie Cauley-Stein agrees to one-year deal with Houston Rockets, per report

Willie Cauley-Stein is looking to make a return to the NBA.

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, Cauley-Stein has agreed to a one-year deal with the Houston Rockets where he will compete for a roster spot during training camp, which typically begins sometime during September. The soon-to-be 29-year-old former Kentucky Wildcat played 20 combined games in the 2021-22 season for the Dallas Mavericks and Philadelphia 76ers.

He must’ve known something was coming, too. Earlier this morning, WCS posted pictures to his Instagram account of him putting in work with performance specialist Melvin Sanders and popular basketball skills trainer Tyler Relph.
