The Houston Rockets agreed to a deal with the Washington Wizards to send Whitmore to D.C. in exchange for two future second-round picks. ESPN's Shams Charania first reported the news. Whitmore's name had been circulating in various potential deals, as the forward had made it clear that he wasn't happy about his spot on the Rockets' depth chart.

Cam Whitmore is going to get his chance. Whitmore was frustrated in Houston with his lack of minutes. Part of that was that Whitmore was stuck in a logjam at the forward spot in Houston, and the addition this offseason of Kevin Durant and Dorian Finney-Smith was not going to help matters.
