Re: Jacobsen on Rockets' radar Jacobsen on Rockets' radarThe Rockets could be close to adding shooter Casey Jacobsen to their retooled backcourt, potentially giving them five guard additions since last season.Jacobsen, a first-round pick out of Stanford by the Phoenix Suns in 2002, was offered a partially guaranteed contract with the Rockets after a strong season with European power Tau Ceramica (Vitoria, Spain) and in the Las Vegas Summer League.Jacobsen, who is not likely to sign until the middle of next week, would join Vassilis Spanoulis, Kirk Snyder, John Lucas III and Kelenna Azubuike as backcourt additions since last season. Guards Rafer Alston and Luther Head have had one season with the Rockets.Jacobsen averaged 16.4 points on 54 percent shooting with the Nuggets' summer league team after averaging nine points last season for Tau Ceramica. He averaged 5.9 points on 39.9 percent shooting and 37 percent 3-point shooting in three seasons with the Suns and Hornets.Link
