ANALYSIS: Clippers assistant coach and former player Sam Cassell has been linked to the recently open head-coaching job in Houston. There is reportedly mutual interest between the Rockets and Cassell, as he also played for Houston too.
Cassell had a 15-year playing career in the NBA and jumped into a coaching position not too long after he announced his retirement in 2009.
