Daryl Morey Rumors

The Golden State owner Joe Lacob invited Houston’s general manager, Daryl Morey, to join a Warriors contingent that flew from Houston to Chicago on a private plane arranged by the Warriors, according to two people with knowledge of the flight. The shared commute took place this week after the Rockets evened the series, 1-1, with a home victory on Wednesday night in Game 2, according to the people, who were not authorized to discuss the details publicly.
