Houston Rockets big man Christian Wood is experiencing his first NBA trade season with his name in the rumor mill on a daily basis. Wood admitted to checking into rumors involving him, but said he’d rather not have his name out there.
“This is my first year being in trade rumors,” Wood said. “I’m not really a fan of it.”
Wood said he’s committed to the Rockets and that Houston is where he wants to be.
“I’m committed to this organization, and I know they’re committed to me. I’ve given them everything. They’ve given me everything, too,” Wood said. “I’m honored and blessed to be here. I’m really just waiting for this trade deadline to be over.”
Wood later reiterated that he has no desire to leave Houston.
“This is my home. This is where I want to be,” Wood said. “I’ve told (Stephen) Silas and Tilman (Fertitta) and Pat (Fertitta) and Raf (Stone), and they have the same feeling about me.”
