News from September 30. TRADE: Houston traded Glen Rice, draft considerations, and $2.5 million to Utah for John Amaechi and a future 2nd round draft pick. The draft considerations are the pick(s) that Houston received from Chicago via the 2000 Bryce Drew trade. If Chicago finishes in the top 19 teams for 03-04, it will be a 1st round draft pick, else it will be a 2005 2nd round draft pick and maybe a 2006 2nd round draft pick (if Chicago is in the bottom 10 teams). The Utah 2nd round draft pick comes from Sacramento via this summer's Keon Clark trade.
