Sacramento has traded forward Thomas Robinson to the Houston Rockets, league source tells Y Sports.
The Houston Rockets have traded Marcus Morris to the Phoenix Suns for a future second-round draft pick, league sources tell Y! Sports.

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA now
The Rockets will send Patrick Patterson, Cole Aldrich and Toney Douglas to the Kings for Thomas Robinson, sources tell Y!
The Kings really traded a recent lotto pick for another team's trash?
Toney Douglas
D'antoni product
Marcus Morris is better than a 2nd rounder tbh
Agreed. Quality buy-low trade. That said, Phoenix has an abundance of underachieving knuckleheads now.
Weird trade. Is T-Rob really that bad that on a rookie scale contract he still wasn't valuable enough for the kings to retain? This guy was talked up as the number 2 pick by some people before the draft.
If the rockets were going to send Patterson and Aldrich to sactown I don't get why they jettisoned Morris for a 2nd. Now they are pretty damn thin up front. Robinson a good add though
Complicated and odd trade.
Seems:
Robinson, Garcia, Honeycutt, 2nd
For
Aldrich, Patterson and Douglas
Sam Amick @sam_amick Kings send T. Robinson, F. Garcia, T. Honeycutt to Houston for Toney Douglas, Cole Aldrich, Patrick Patterson & cash, USAT has learned.
Robinson will flourish once he gets out of Sacramento tbh. Like J.J. Hickson.
Morey simply making his case for GM of the Year.

Assuming HOU declines '14 option on Garcia, the two moves tonight save HOU about $1.6M combined in 2014 salary. Ahem.
Kings just having a fire sale before they move to Seattle tbh.
They should have Morey and RC duking it out for GM of the Year every year tbh
Turns out its a ménage trade twixt Houston, Sacramento and Phoenix.
So who's going to be Houston's backup PG? Is there something I'm missing?
I'm surprised Telfair wasn't sent to Houston to be backup. Lots of talk both Telfair and O'Neal will be traded to playoff teams.
robinson will be nice in houston and morris should start in phoenix
Patrick Beverly for now. Unless there's a minor trade tomorrow.
Patrick Beverly, he's been stealing Douglas' minutes. Not a bad backup, tbh. He can look like at times though.
Great deal by Morey, per the usual. Landing a top 5 pick from this draft, clearing our logjam at PF (and unleashing Motiejunas), while still clearing more cap space to go all in on Howard this summer.
All it does is add 2 million towards the salary cap for no reason IMO.
No FA of worth is choosing Phoenix right now. I'd rather they do this then overspend for another Beasley.
