PJ Tucker Trade Coming Soon as Houston Reveals Price Tag

The Houston Rockets are making some changes as we approach the trade deadline and forward PJ Tucker will be moved.

The Rockets will be moving the veteran and instead of wanting some more draft picks for the future, the team is interested in a player that will help the team win now.

Tucker hasn't been interested in the Rockets' offers so a contract extension seems to be off the table at this point. The 35-year-old versatile forward has appeared in 26 games so far this campaign and is averaging 4.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game.

Some contenders such as the Toronto Raptors, Philadelphia 76ers, Milwaukee Bucks, LA Clippers and LA Lakers all have different levels of interest in Tucker but it will be curious to see which team bites on moving a roster player who can contribute.

Besides DeMarcus Cousins, the Lakers are also interested in PJ Tucker.

The Rockets are asking for a player who they can keep in the lineup, not just picks.
