This needs to be our next attempt. 6'9 PF. Here are some highlights: As a Junior led the Big Ten in both Scoring and Rebounding - showes that he plays both sides of the ball well, which should translate with our new fast pace team. Was also known for his thunderous dunks at Purdue, which will bring excitement and compliment our new transition/opportunistic team for those watching summerleague you can see what I mean

'08 PlayoffsOn April 24, 2008, Landry lost a tooth in game 3 of the 2008 NBA Playoffs against the Utah Jazz. In that same game, he made a last second clutch game-winning block on Deron Williams to seal the much needed win for the Rockets, 94-92.[2]

During his first contract negotiation with Houston (2008) only 1 other team is mentioned: "Following his rookie season, Landry became a restricted free agent. However, his contract negotiations with Houston Rockets showed little progress. On September 24, 2008, he signed an offer sheet extended by the Charlotte Bobcats reportedly worth $9 million for 3 years (Third year being a team option).[3] One day later, Rockets matched the offer."
