Thomas Robinson was traded by the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday to the Houston Rockets, a rare instance where a top lottery pick is dealt midway through his rookie season.

“I found out through Marcus Morris,” Robinson told RealGM. “He called me and then my agent let me know so it was pretty quick.”

“I’m on a new team, new organization, so it’s definitely a new start for me,” Robinson told RealGM.

“It’s an up-and-down pace and I’m a young guy,” said Robinson. “I feel like I’ll fit right in with them.”
