Houston Rockets boss Rafael Stone is making sure he puts down every possible weight to keep James Harden in H-Town and in the process he has brought home one of the NBA’s most feared open-court forces when he’s healthy, John Wall, to aide in keeping Harden in Houston.
According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Wall and a first-round pick will go to the Rockets in exchange for the 2017 MVP Russell Westbrook. Wall hasn’t played in the NBA in over two seasons and while he is the fastest player in the league while he is able to let the horses ride, he still has some of the best vision the game has ever seen, especially when combined with his vision at a fast speed.
Houston has agreed to trade Russell Westbrook to Washington for John Wall and a first-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

While many were waiting for John Wall to rejoin Bradley Beal, Wall joining Harden as his latest co-star may be the best chance the Rockets have of keeping an agitating yet important force in the backcourt next to the indomitable beard.
