Houston agreed to a one-year contract with wing Bogdan Bogdanovic on Tuesday, a person with knowledge of the deal confirmed. Financial terms were not immediately available.
Bogdanovic, who will turn 34 in August, is a career 38.1% shooter from 3-point range and should provide much-needed floor-spacing for the Rockets. Bogdanovic stands just 6-foot-5 but boasts a 6-11 wingspan, which should allow him some positional versatility.
The biggest question for the veteran is health. He played just 23 games last season and 54 the year before that.
He played a career-high 79 games for the Atlanta Hawks in the 2023-24 season. He averaged a career-best 16.9 points per game and shot 37.4% from deep on a whopping 8.1 attempts per game. He finished fifth in the Sixth Man of the Year voting that season.
He could be a valuable bench scorer for the Rockets if he can stay on the court — which will depend on his health but also general mobility as an older player.
