Report: Rockets signing G Marcus Smart to 2-year, $13M deal

Jul 1, 2026 | 9:16 AM

The Houston Rockets are signing free agent Marcus Smart to a two-year, $13 million contract, ESPN reported Wednesday.

The 32-year-old guard averaged 9.3 points, 3.0 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 62 games (54 starts) with the Los Angeles Lakers this past season. He declined his $5.4 million player option with the Lakers on Monday.

Smart reunites with Rockets head coach Ime Udoka, his coach with the Boston Celtics when he won NBA Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2021-22.

Smart averaged 12.9 points, 5.1 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 2.4 steals in 10 postseason starts last season with L.A.

A first-round pick (sixth overall) by Boston in 2014, Smart has averaged 10.5 points, 4.4 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 697 career games (441 starts) with the Celtics (2014-23), Memphis Grizzlies (2023-25) and Lakers.
