Houston Rockets trade rumors 2016: Sacramento Kings' Rudy Gay might be traded to the Houston Rockets

 Wikipedia

A lot of fans have seen Rudy Gay on the trading block for the past few weeks, and despite most rumors pointing out that he will move to the Miami Heat, a lot of contradictory rumors say that it is possible for him to stay in the Western Conference and just move to the Houston Rockets.

According to the Ecumenical News, Gay was one of the Rockets's players of interest, and as such it was rumored that the team and this player had already been discussing a deal involving his possible transfer to the Rockets. However, with Gay only have a year's worth of contract left, it might be a bad time for this team to make the move, since it is possible for him to just walk away after the season ends.

The Kings said that they are not looking for something excessive in exchange of Gay, so regardless of the above-mentioned risks, it is still easier to have a trade deal accomplished between the two teams. After all, in normal circumstances it would take them a few key pieces from their own just to acquire this prestigiously veteran forward.

Regardless, Rudy Gay can be one hell of an addition to the Houston Rockets if the trade will be enacted. He can be a good replacement for the former All-star center Dwight Howard, as he is a second best option in terms of offense. The reason for this is that Harden, regardless of whether or not Gay will move, will still reign as the top scorer for the team.

With him on the team, though, Gay's potential arrival is not only to help augment the team's offensive efforts but also advance the franchise's goal of surrounding "The Beard" with talent. In any case, the Rockets still continues to revamp their roster in order to have a much better season compared to the last.
