Ariza was traded to the Rockets from the Trail Blazers on Monday, along with two first-round picks, in exchange for Robert Covington.
The Blazers will send the 16th pick in Wednesday's draft -- as well as a protected 2021 first-rounder to the Rockets -- in exchange for Covington, who finished last season in Houston after coming over from Minnesota. Ariza split time between Sacramento and Portland in 2019-20, and he'll now rejoin the franchise for which he played from 2014-17. Ariza averaged just 28.2 minutes per contest last season -- his lowest figure since he was a member of the Wizards in 2012-13.
