Cam Whitmore is going back to his home area after being traded by the Houston Rockets to the Washington Wizards for a pair of second-round picks, a person with knowledge of the deal said Saturday.
The trade will likely be folded into a larger multiteam series of moves and cannot be finalized until Sunday at the earliest, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of that pending NBA approval.

Whitmore, a Maryland native, averaged 10.8 points in his two seasons with the Rockets — who took him with the No. 20 pick in the 2023 draft.
Whitmore’s acquisition is another step in the offseason overhaul by the Wizards, who have been in the mode of acquiring young players who can play multiple positions while continuing to accumulate assets.
They could have $100 million available — if not more — in cap space next summer, and earlier in this offseason acquired CJ McCollum and Kelly Olynyk in a trade with New Orleans for Jordan Poole along with landing Tre Johnson with the No. 6 pick in the draft.
