According to ESPN, the Rockets have signed Eddie Griffin, the #7 pick they acquired for 3 #1 draft picks on draft night.  The signing should shore up the power forward position somewhat after the loss of Maurice Taylor to an achilles injury.

Eddie Griffin will be paid the maximum allowable salary under the CBA, according to the Houston Chronicle's Jonathan Feigen: $6.961 million over 3 years.  The Rockets hold an option for a fourth season.
