Gerald Green, who won the 2007 NBA dunk contest, will join the Rockets' coaching staff as a player development coach.
For Houston native Gerald Green, the sweetest part of his storybook comeback isn't making the playoffs, it's helping rebuild homes and lives after Hurricane Harvey devastated parts of his city.
Gerald Green, who was ejected Sunday for shoving the Timberwolves' Gorgui Dieng while coming to the defense of Chris Paul, was fined $25,000. Paul said Sunday that he'd pay any fine as a result of the incident.
Clippers coach Doc Rivers jokingly said Wednesday the team "barricaded all of the secret passageways" at Staples Center in order to keep his players and the Rockets apart and prevent an incident similar to last month's contentious matchup.
By adding Joe Johnson, who has committed to joining the Rockets after he clears waivers, Houston now boasts three veteran contributors without surrendering any assets.
Trevor Ariza refused to confirm if he has talked to the Clippers' Austin Rivers, but he did accept responsibility for the actions that led to his two-game suspension.
