CODY ZELLER HEADS TO HOUSTON

The Houston Rockets acquired center Cody Zeller and a second-round draft pick in 2028 from the Atlanta Hawks for forward Alpha Kaba.

What does it give the Houston Rockets
Zeller adds center depth for the Rockets, who already boast Alperen Sengun, Steven Adams and Jock Landale on the roster. Therefore, do not expect Zeller to play much.

What does it give the Atlanta Hawks
This is essentially a salary dump, as Zeller had been away from the Hawks for personal reasons since the start of the season. They spent a second-round pick to get rid of him.
