Rockets waive Isaiah Hartenstein
Mark Berman: According to NBA sources the Rockets will sign 7-foot center Isaiah Hartenstein today. Played for Vipers in G League last season.
Following center Isaiah Hartenstein’s strong showing in the Rockets’ summer program and Summer League games in Las Vegas, the Rockets are working toward signing Hartenstein to an NBA deal with hopes they will reach agreement by the end of the week, according to a person with knowledge of the team’s plans.
Hartenstein, a 7-foot center, played for the Rockets’ Rio Grande Valley affiliate with a G League contract last season. Though the Rockets retain his draft rights, having selected Hartenstein in the second-round of the 2017 Draft, he is unsigned and could have chosen to return to Europe or to play another season in the G League.

Pau Gasol eyeing Laker return?
Unfortunately, Marc didn’t have any breaking news regarding that prospect during his interview with Allie Cliffton of Spectrum SportsNet on Wednesday, but he did say that Pau would almost certainly welcome a reunion with the Lakers if the opportunity presented itself: “I’m not a very social media guy, but I know Pau loves L.A. and loves the Lakers. Obviously he feels like it’s home, so I’m sure that he would love to come back, but that’s question for Rob and ownership.”
Malika Andrews on the Bucks: They signed Jrue holiday. That was probably an upgrade and I’ve been told by people close to Giannis that that was a good signal that they were able to get a guy like that who is a little bit better shooter than Eric Bledsoe.
Sources told The Athletic Danilo Gallinari’s partial guarantee in Year 3 with the Hawks is $5 million out of his $21.4 million owed that year. Gallinari signed a three-year, $61.5 million contract this past weekend.
Mike Singer on Jerami Grant and the Nugets: I had been hearing that there was a ton of confidence and a lot of belief that he was going to be their starting power forward. But they had basically penciled him in for years, like this was supposed to happen (…) I had been hearing as early as Friday morning that the Nuggets felt extremely confident that he was going to be back.
Mike Singer on Will Barton: He’s been in Miami for weeks rehabbing his knee. I’ve been told that he’s in regular communication with Tim Connelly.
