Rockets Sign Josh Okogie To One-Year Contract

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Houston Rockets have made the decision to sign Josh Okogie to a one-year worth $3.1 million contract.

Ahead of his $7.75 million guarantee date, the Charlotte Hornets waived him so they didn’t have to pay that price tag. Houston then secured themselves a solid defensive player who adds wing depth to the team.

Okogie appeared in 40 games last season, which saw him average 7.1 points and 1.2 steals per game.
