The Rockets have signed Trhae Mitchell, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle tweets.
While Feigen didn’t specify, it’s likely an Exhibit 10 deal.
The 6’6” Mitchell, 25, played for Houston’s G League team, the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, last season and averaged 10 points, 7.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 28 games, including 23 starts. He also appeared in five games for the Rockets’ Summer League team.
It’s likely Mitchell will soon be placed on waivers, then return to the Rio Grande team. If he has an Exhibit 10 deal, he could earn a bonus up to $50K.
Trae with a silent h in the middle of it. How stupid is that
