Ty Lawson is nearing the end of his stay at Cliffside Malibu where he is receiving treatment for alcohol addiction.

Lawson has two pending court cases, Aug. 18 and Aug. 20, in Denver.

"We take those very seriously," Daryl Morey said. "He's had some very serious incidents in his past and in his recent past. We feel like he's part of the Rockets family now and through our conversations with him we feel confident he's getting the help he needs and he's taken that step to say this is something he needs to do is improve on those areas."

A source close to Lawson said, "Ty is doing well. Great. Working hard, making progress."

Lawson's mother, father, girlfriend and teammates will become his support system and see to it that he continues to make progress.
