The Warriors will sign guard Scott Machado for the rest of the season.
Machado had been under a 10-day contract after spending much of the season with the Rockets. He's got talent, but as long as Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Jarrett Jack are healthy, he won't see much playing time unless it's in the final regular-season game and the Warriors have nothing left to play for.

Rockets recall Scott Machado from the D-League.

Machado is unlikely to play a role in Houston's rotation, but his move to the D-League was designed to be temporary.

The Rockets intend to send rookie PG Scott Machado to the D-League this season, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.

This is a mild surprise given Houston's decision to also waive Shaun Livingston on Monday. Toney Douglas and Daequan Cook will vie for backup PG minutes.

Rockets rookie Scott Machado scored nine points and handed out 11 assists off the bench on Sunday.

Machado, who led the NCAA in assists last year, racked up his 11 assists in just 23 minutes. Neither Toney Douglas nor Shaun Livingston is a pure playmaker, and there's a chance Machado will hold down backup PG minutes behind Jeremy Lin.

Rockets sign PG Scott Machado.

Machado led the NCAA in assists with Iona last season, while shooting 40.4 percent from beyond the arc, and he'll give Houston some affordable depth behind Jeremy Lin and Toney Douglas at PG. The undrafted rookie signed a three-year contract, with the third year unguaranteed.

The Rockets will sign Scott Machado to a three-year, partially guaranteed deal.

Houston doesn't have much depth at the point behind Jeremy Lin and Machado would be competing with Toney Douglas and Shaun Livingston for the backup duties. Machado led the NCAA in assists last year and added 13.6 points per game in his senior year at Iona. He's not on the radar in fantasy leagues and will likely need an injury to have value.

Undrafted PG Scott Machado has an offer to attend the Rockets' training camp, but he is also in discussions "with several other NBA teams."

The Rockets only have Toney Douglas and Shaun Livingston behind Jeremy Lin at the moment, neither of whom are pure PGs, whereas Machado averaged 9.9 assists and shot 40.4 percent from downtown in college. "I feel like Jeremy Lin is a good player," he said recently. "If I have to sit behind him for a little while then that’s fine, but hopefully one day I’ll be starting for an NBA team."

Undrafted Iona PG Scott Machado has received calls from the Cavaliaers, Hawks, Hornets, Raptors and Rockets, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.

Machado averaged 9.9 assists vs. 3.3 turnovers for Iona last season, adding 13.6 points per game on solid shooting averages (49.5 percent FGs, 40.4 percent 3-pointers). He could develop into a worthwhile backup PG for any of the teams mentioned, and will likely get a few invites to Summer League.

The Pistons are doing their "due diligence" on Iona point guard Scott Machado.

Machado recently interviewed with the Pistons at a predraft event held by the Nets, and he's scheduled to workout for Detroit in the "coming weeks." Projected as as second-round selection, the Pistons hold the No. 39 and No. 44 picks.

Scott Machado worked out for the Knicks on Thursday.

Machado gave an interesting quote following his workout. "They got some players that are banged up, hurt or some players that are retiring or old." The Iona product also expressed optimism about potentially joining the club, and there's no question the Knicks will be in the market for a point guard. "It would be a wonderful feeling to be able to stay home," he said. Machado has worked out for a handful of teams and currently projects as a second-round pick.
