Rockets: Waived G JD Davian.

The Houston Rockets, sitting at 52–30 and ranked fifth in the Western Conference, have continued to fine‑tune their roster as they chase a top‑six power‑ranking spot. With a net rating of +5.2 and a recent 9–1 run over their last ten games, the team is currently on a one‑game winning streak and appears focused on maintaining its momentum.

Guard JD Davian, who was on the Orlando Magic roster wearing jersey #20, posted modest numbers this season—averaging 2.5 points, 1.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists over 28 games while shooting 37.5% from the field. Given his limited production, the Rockets decided to waive him, likely clearing a roster spot as they manage depth amid a strong campaign.
