    HOUSTON -- Five years after being drafted, Luis Scola has finally signed with an NBA team.

    Scola, who was chosen by San Antonio in the 2002 draft but never played for the Spurs, was introduced as the newest member of the Houston Rockets on Tuesday.

    The Spurs held his rights since 2002 while he continued to play for Tau Ceramica of the Euroleague. The Rockets obtained the draft rights to the Argentinian forward and acquired Jackie Butler in exchange for Vassilis Spanoulis in a trade last week with the Spurs. Houston also had to give up a second-round pick in the 2009 draft for Scola.

    "Luis fills a position of need," Rockets general manager Daryl Morey said. "We thought he was the best guy out there and we worked really hard to get him here."

    Luis Scola will be a valuable addition to our team. It seems that Adelman got his man after all. I just can't wait for the season to begin. I'm sure he'll compliment well with Yao and Tracy. Probably this 07-08 season will be the one we are all waiting for, with the Rockets finally advancing deep into the playoffs.[​IMG]
