The Trail Blazers are finalizing a trade to acquire Rockets forward Robert Covington, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Houston will reportedly receive forward Trevor Ariza, a 2020 first-round pick and a 2021 protected first-round pick in the deal, per Wojnarowski. The Rockets are now slated to hold the No. 16 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft on Wednesday.
Covington, 29, was acquired by the Rockets in February in a trade with the Timberwolves. The Tennessee State product averaged 11.6 points and 2.2 blocks per game with Houston as he shot 50% from three in the postseason.
