Rockets hope that Sergio Llull will join the team next season

As reported by Marc Stein of ESPN, the Houston Rockets hope to bring Sergio Llull to the NBA next season. Llull, who had an amazing performance yesterday against the Rockets, is under contract with Real Madrid until 2021 but has an NBA buyout in his deal.

Rockets love Llull but so far he has always rejected the idea of leaving Spain to sign in NBA.

The Rockets, I'm told, are hopeful Llull will join them next season. It's been the Spaniard's choice to stay home to date; Houston wants him
