The Houston Rockets have finalized their 2-way contract roster by signing Sean Pedulla, adding him to Quadir Copeland and Tristen Newton. Pedulla, the previous season's G League Rookie of the Year, is noted for his scoring ability, averaging 20.3 points and 5.5 assists per game. Newton, also a G League First Team selection, provides a physical presence but has had inconsistent shooting.
