For the remainder of the season, the Houston Rockets have signed guard D.J. Augustin as a free agent.
Charlotte originally selected Augustin (6-0, 183) as the ninth overall choice in the 2008 NBA Draft. He has made 334 starts over 976 games and has a career average of 9.5 points, 3.9 assists, and 1.8 rebounds. Augustin had an assist-to-turnover ratio of 2.44 and a 39.6% 3-point shooting percentage over the previous two seasons.
This is Augustin’s second stint with the Rockets; he played in 34 games to begin last season and 20 games in the second half before leaving for the Los Angeles Lakers in March 2022.
