Mark Berman: Can confirm ESPN report the Rockets acquired Derrick Favors, Ty Jerome, Moe Harkless, Theo Maledon & Atlanta’s 2025 2nd-round pick from OKC for David Nwaba, Sterling Brown, Trey Burke & Marquese Chriss. According to an NBA source the key for the Rockets is the draft pick.
Adam Wexler: #Rockets trades are official. - Christian Wood to Dallas for the rights to Wendell Moore Jr., (26th pick), Sterling Brown, Trey Burke, Marquese Chriss, and Boban Marjanović - Moore’s rights to Minnesota for the rights to TyTy Washington Jr. (29th pick) & 2 future 2nd rd picks
JD Shaw: The Dallas Mavericks have officially acquired Christian Wood in a trade with the Houston Rockets, sending away the draft rights to No. 26 pick Wendell Moore, Sterling Brown, Trey Burke, Marquese Chriss and Boban Marjanovic.
Though the Rockets traded Wood because he no longer fit with the rebuild and to acquire a first-round pick, the Rockets are weighing keeping Marjanovic as one of the center options they are considering. They are not expected to keep other players acquired in the deal — Marquese Chriss, Sterling Brown and Trey Burke. The free-agent class at center is considered unusually deep with players that might be available to teams, including the Rockets, that are over the cap but can offer the full mid-level exception, starting at $10.5 million. The Nets are considered unlikely to match a mid-level offer to Nic Claxton.
