RUMOR: Is Kosta Koufos Getting Traded?

No. 41 may be leaving the Sacramento Kings.

According to The Bleacher Report, the Houston Rockets have their eye on Kosta Koufos. Though Houston is having a pretty good season so far, they're looking to expand defensively and make a deep run in the playoffs. The 7-foot center is averaging six points and nearly six rebounds per game in just 19.5 minutes.

Adding Koufos to the squad would likely come at a steep cost, though. With him at the rim, the Kings are allowing four fewer points per 100 possessions with him on the floor.

The NBA trade deadline is Feb. 23, so Kings fans will have to wait and see.
