The Houston Rockets have reportedly agreed to trade center Omer Asik to the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for a 2015 first-round Draft pick.
The Rockets have been looking to move players off their books this off-season as they try to go in search for a star signing.
The NBA's official website has suggested that the trade cannot be officially announced until after the July moratorium in the NBA, with deals only being officially formalised after this date.
Asik originally joined the Rockets in 2012 as the player left the Chicago Bulls as a free agent.
