The Houston Rockets have re-signed guard Armoni Brooks to an exhibit 10 deal.

Brooks (6-3, 195) began last season with the Rockets G League affiliate, Rio Grande Valley, before signing a two-way contract with Houston on April 3. He appeared in 20 games with five starts for the Rockets while averaging 11.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 26.0 minutes per game.

The University of Houston product has the most 3-pointers made (60) through the first 20 games of a career in NBA history; the previous record was 48. Brooks scored 10+ points in each of the final seven games of 2020-21 (18.4 ppg) after doing so four times his first 13 games played (7.2 ppg).

The Houston Rockets have signed Daishen Nix and Tyler Bey to Exhibit 10 training camp contracts. 

Nix had been considered one of the top players in the 2020 recruiting class and signed with UCLA before opting to play for the G League Ignite. Nix was teammates with Jalen Green.

Bey was the 36th overall pick in 2020 and spent last season on a Two-Way contract with the Dallas Mavericks. Bey, a 6-7 forward, averaged 15.1 points in 26.9 minutes last season in the G League, making 49.3 percent of his shots and 32.5 percent of his 3s, while averaging 9.2 rebounds.

Jalen Green worked out for the Detroit Pistons and Houston Rockets before the draft and lobbied to be the first overall selection even though he preferred one city over the other. 

“I wanted to be the No. 1 pick, but as for the location, I didn't want to be in Detroit,” Green told Yahoo Sports. “I felt a lot more comfortable in Houston. It felt like a real homey environment. With Detroit, it felt like I was just going back to the G League bubble, and I just got out of the bubble. That’s pretty much what it was.

“In the [G League] bubble, I didn’t really have anything to do but just stay in the gym. I didn’t have any time to get away for myself. The only time I had to get away for myself was in my apartment. That’s what it felt like in Detroit. I wouldn’t be stepping outside in Detroit. There are not many things you can do in Detroit like that. You’re going to stay in the gym and then go back to your apartment.”

Green hopes to become the NBA's Rookie of the Year.

“I need it. I feel like I’m the best player in the class,” Green told Yahoo Sports. “I didn’t go No. 1, so I’m going to go get the Rookie of the Year.”

Jalen Green will likely miss the rest of the Summer League with a sore right hamstring.

The Houston Rockets will have Green undergo an MRI as a precaution, but they don't believe there is a "significant concern" with the injury.

Green scored 61 points in 72 summer league minutes, shooting 19-of-37 from the floor and 10-of-19 from 3-point range.

The Rockets selected Green with the No. 2 pick.

The Houston Rockets have guaranteed the contract of Jae'Sean Tate for next season. The Rockets signed Tate to a three-year contract before the 20-21 season. 

The decision to guarantee Tate's contract came at the direction of Tilman Fertitta. 

Tate was a first-team All-Rookie selection, playing 70 of the 72 games.

Daniel Theis has agreed to a four-year, $36 million deal with the Houston Rockets.

Theis finished last season with the Chicago Bulls after he was traded by the Boston Celtics in a luxury tax avoiding maneuver. 

Tim MacMahon reports that the Rockets will work with the Bulls on a sign-and-trade using their Victor Oladipo trade exception.

David Nwaba has agreed to at tree-year, $15 million deal with the Houston Rockets.
