According to Evan Sidery, Landale’s salary guarantee triggers on June 29th, making this the ideal time for Houston to create additional financial flexibility.
Landale averaged 4.8 points and 3.3 rebounds last season while shooting an impressive 53.3% from the field and 42.3% from beyond the arc.
He is expected to attract interest around the league as a solid backup center on a veteran minimum deal.
This move reflects the Rockets’ efforts to reshape their roster and open up cap space for future signings.
