NBA Rumors: The team that wants to steal Dorian Finney-Smith from the Lakers
The player rejected the player option he had with the Angels in an attempt to secure a more lucrative contract in free agency.
Free Agency: The Houston Rockets have emerged as one of the teams interested in signing Dorian Finney-Smith during free agency, as announced on June 29. The forward chose not to exercise his player option for $15.4 million for the 2025-26 season with the Los Angeles Lakers, the team he joined last season and is considered a priority to re-sign.
The Houston franchise is looking to strengthen its rotation with a defensive-minded wing with outside shooting — the classic 3&D player profile — following Dillon Brooks' departure, who was part of the trade that brought Kevin Durant to the Rockets. Finney-Smith would fit perfectly to cover that role in the team's scheme.
