This is a bit interesting.
The Houston Rockets have been linked to big names such as Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James, however according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the first player Houston contacted to set up a meeting is free agent point guard Kyle Lowry.
Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey has traveled to Philadelphia to meet with free agent guard Kyle Lowry tonight, league source tells Yahoo.

Lowry is a priority for the Rockets, who will first make a run at Carmelo Anthony (and LeBron James).

It was a little over a year and half ago that the Rockets shipped Lowry to Toronto, so this is a bit of a surprise. It will be interesting to see how the Rockets go about dealing with Lowry, especially if they are trying to use free cap space to lure Anthony or James.
