Podcast: Troy Daniels’ Journey to the NBA

After the trade deadline passed, the Houston Rockets didn’t waste much time making sure they had in the fold one of the NBDL’s best prospects, signing Troy Daniels to a two-year deal.

The 6-foot-4 guard has been called one of the best shooters they’ve ever seen by his coaches and general manager Daryl Morey as he shattered the NBDL record for made threes in a season and is currently averaging almost 23 points a night.

The newest Rocket joins Dave Hardisty on the podcast to discuss how he felt signing a deal with the Rockets and the path he took to get here — from his days lighting it up with Virginia Commonwealth University to his current long-range assault with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers.

“I’m finally going to get my chance to show the whole world that I am a great shooter,” said Daniels.
