Per Shams, Nets are buying out Faried who will then join the Rockets at the vet minimum.

Harden shoots and misses, Faried rebound passes to Harden, Harden shoots and misses, Faried rebound passes to Harden over and over again until Harden gets fouled. Cant wait

I like it for the Rockets. They get someone to step into Capela's shoes (obviously he's 2 inches shorter than Capela).

- great rebounder (just like Capela)
- he can be the roll man in the pick n roll with Harden (just like Capela)
- he defends multiple positions (better than Capela in that regard)

Good for him
He had been racking up DNPs in BKN

Faried has signed with the Rockets.  James Nunnally was waived to create the roster spot.
