Dorian Finney-Smith has signed a four-year, $53 million contract with the Houston Rockets, offering them crucial wing depth as a versatile 3-and-D player. Known for his impressive defense, Finney-Smith has a career-high 41% three-point shooting and excelled in limiting All-Star players to lower shooting percentages. He replaces Dillon Brooks in the Rockets' lineup after Brooks was traded for Kevin Durant. Finney-Smith, previously with the Lakers, opted out of his player option to become a free agent after impactful performances in his last season.
Finney-Smith's agent negotiated terms of the deal tonight with Rockets executives for the 3-and-D wing. It's a major acquisition for Houston.
Finney-Smith averaged just under 29 minutes per game for the Lakers while shooting 39.8% from 3, making an immediate impact.
