Rockets' Marcelo Huertas: Traded to Houston, will be waived

Huertas was traded to the Rockets on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical reports.

Analysis:

The Lakers swapped Huertas for Tyler Ennis, and the expectation is that Huertas will be waived by the Rockets in short order, saving the team a bit of cash and opening up another roster spot. Assuming that happens, Huertas will hit the free agent market, but he could have trouble garnering significant interest as a 33-year-old shooting 36.8 percent from the field and 2.1.1 percent from three in limited action this season.
