Anthony Lamb has received a qualifying offer from the Rockets, tweets Kelly Iko of The Athletic. Because Lamb is a two-way player, his QO will carry a $50K guarantee, and it will make him restricted heading into free agency.
Lamb went to training camp with the Pistons last year, but was waived before the season began. He signed with Houston in early March and appeared in 24 games, making three starts and averaging 5.5 points and 2.9 rebounds per night.
A 6’6″ small forward, Lamb played for both the Canton Charge and the Rio Grande Valley Vipers in the G League bubble this year. He was named the league’s Most Improved Player.
Earlier today, the Rockets tendered a qualifying offer to Armoni Brooks, so both of their two-way players have been addressed. However, the team also reportedly agreed to a two-way deal with undrafted rookie Matthew Hurt, so it appears unlikely that both Brooks and Lamb will return unless one is promoted to the 15-man roster.
THE BROW(S)
This is troubling…
Wow it’s a Dynasty …… Die Nasty.
I guarantee you the Rockets rebuild will be less nasty and far quicker than your still trash Knicks
Catchup and stop embarrassing yourself. 4th seed in the East. The rebuild is over. Knicks building a contender now. Amazing what a real coach can do. When will Rockets get one.
and that’s it,,try all you want and in the end 4th seed in the East is gonna be as far as you can get
How long did it take the Knicks to have one solid season after 30 years of being a laughing stock? At least Rockets never stayed down after the 90s, I can’t say the same for the Knicks. It hasn’t been all peaches and cream for the Rockets since Dex and Hakeem made the team Champs, but it’s clearly better than Knicks situation since Ewing retired. I can think of only Jeremy Lin who made Knicks relevant for one season. That was the most “spot light” Knicks have had in the last 30 years.
