With less than 24 hours until the NBA’s trade deadline for the 2022-23 season (at 2 p.m. Central on Thursday), significant deals were very unlikely for the Rockets as of Wednesday night, per longtime beat writer Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle.
“Rockets veteran Eric Gordon is a trade target of several teams, but is not considered the primary target,” Feigen writes. “That, combined with the Rockets still valuing his play and his contract beyond this season, has made any trade of Gordon unlikely unless deadline pressure, most likely from a team that loses out on its top targets, leads to a change in the offers the Rockets have received.”
