JD Davison, a former Boston Celtics draft pick, has signed a two-way contract with the Houston Rockets following his recent release from Boston. The standout from Alabama, who previously captured G League MVP honors in 2025, is expected to play primarily with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers. In Houston, he may find more opportunities within Ime Udoka's rotation, especially given the current lack of depth at the guard position, aside from Fred VanVleet and Aaron Holiday.

In his limited time with the Celtics, Davison appeared in 36 games, averaging 1.9 points and 0.9 rebounds over 5.5 minutes. His new situation with the Rockets could allow him to showcase his skills more effectively, aligning with the team's playing style and offering a clearer path for minutes.
