Here’s a link to a good article that describes the latest with Chinese player Yi Jianlian, who is expected to be a high first-round draft pick in the NBA draft this summer.

It looks like Yi will be picked so high in the draft, the Rockets would not have much of a chance to get him (if they’re interested) unless they trade for that pick. My bet is that the Rockets’ top priority in the draft will be to find a top-notch point guard instead.
