Shortly after John Wall was traded from the Clippers to the Rockets on Thursday ahead of the NBA deadline, Houston told the guard that he will be waived, per TNT and Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes.
This means the former No. 1 pick will headline free agency at the midpoint of the 2022–23 NBA season.
Wall previously played for the Rockets in the 2020–21 season, but then sat out the following season before heading to Los Angeles.
