Rockets trying to trade veteran F P.J. Tucker
The Houston Rockets appear to be headed for a split with disgruntled forward P.J. Tucker. The 35-year-old veteran wants to be traded to a contender and held himself out of Thursday night’s 125-105 setback to the Sacramento Kings, the Rockets’ 14th straight loss. “We’re going to try to figure out something that works for him and works for us as far as him not being on the team anymore,” coach Stephen Silas said after Thursday’s game.
