During the 2015 NBA Draft the Nuggets selected Emmanuel Mudiay a 6'6 rookie point guard that played in China for a year. Most people including Ty Lawson knew his days playing in Denver was coming to an end. Especially considering Emmanuel couldn't shoot the ball too well so Mudiay wouldn't be able to start at shooting guard. Ty Lawson couldn't start at the shooting guard because he is too short. So it was a must that the Nuggets make a move to trade Ty Lawson away especially after Lawson getting his 2nd DUI and checking himself into a 30-day rehab program.
Last night Ty Lawson was traded to the Houston Rockets. The Houston Rockets traded their first round pick that is protected, Pablo Prigioni, Joey Dorsey, and Nick Johnson. The Houston Rockets basically was able to get Ty Lawson without trading any of their key players away. This trade helped out both teams. This trade helped out the Houston Rockets because they have been desperately looking for a point guard that can score the ball. This was a good trade for the Denver Nuggets because they didn't want to keep players that didn't want to be there. Now that the Rockets have Ty Lawson as their point guard they're back in championship contention considering Ty Lawson stays out of trouble.
