I forgot the NBA granted the Houston Rockets a $12.5 million Disabled Player Exception for Fred VanVleet.
Technically the Rockets can put that extra money to good use. But they need a third team to digest extra salary.
So perhaps they'd be willing to give up some of those extra draft picks if a team were to help them in a trade.

Rockets were talking to the Bucks about a Giannis blockbuster trade but it's confirmed the Rockets have pulled out.
The Bucks wanted Alperen Sengun, Amen Thompson, Reed Sheppard and two first-round picks. Would've been crazy.

Rockets have also been talking to the Mavericks about a Klay Thompson trade. Kevin Durant is pushing for a Klay trade to Houston.
The Rockets would prefer to add Klay Thompson after they acquire Coby White. They view Klay as more of a complimentary piece.
