Rockets' Cody Zeller: Shipped to Houston
Rotowire
The Rockets acquired Zeller (personal) and a 2028 second-round pick from the Hawks on Thursday in exchange for the rights to forward Alpha Kaba, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Zeller didn't report to the Hawks all season since being acquired by Atlanta in July as a part of the sign-and-trade deal that sent Dejounte Murray to New Orleans. The Hawks have now dumped Zeller's salary to Houston to avoid the luxury tax. The veteran big man is unlikely to receive significant playing time for the Rockets, as he'll find himself behind Alperen Sengun, Steven Adams and Jock Landale on the depth chart at center.

Hawks' Cody Zeller: Not available Saturday
Rotowire
Zeller (personal) is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Raptors.
Zeller hasn't reported to the Hawks since being acquired by the team in a sign-and-trade deal over the summer that facilitated Dejounte Murray's move to New Orleans. The 32-year-old center is buried on the depth chart in Atlanta and likely wouldn't have a spot in the rotation even if he had reported to the team for training camp. At this point, Zeller's most value to the Hawks comes from his three-year, $11.03 million contract, which could prove useful for salary-matching purposes if Atlanta makes a trade ahead of the Feb. 6 deadline.
