One of great surprises at this start of the season NBA (along with the undefeated Cavs) are the Houston Rockets. Last year the Texan team finished outside the Play-in zone, with a record of 41-41. This year, without major revolutions in the roster – but with the recovery of Sengun – they are at the moment third in the Western Conference, with 10 wins and only three defeats. And being a young team, with talents on the launch pad come Jalen Green and the same Sengunmany predict a bright future for the franchise. Both because these young people are destined to grow, and because he has players to exchange and future choices, Houston has excellent room to maneuver to try to get at least one superstar. And even if the expressed intention is not to part with its prized pieces, there is no shortage of market objectives.
The two big names on the notebook
The Rockets are in fact attentive to the situation of the league’s big names in the near future. The name of Kevin Durant come objective to make the leap in quality he was already released, in case the player were to become available on the market, regardless of the position of the Suns who would like to keep him in Arizona. This is what one great person, among others, explained NBA transfer expert come Marc Steinwho has now added another possible target for Houston: Giannis Antetokounmpo. The surprising start – this time in negative – of his Bucks caused the the Greek’s bad moodand the voices of one of his possible next farewell to Milwaukee they became insistent. According to Stein, if Giannis decides he wants a change of scenery, i Rockets would have all it takes to get him. Including that of the bond with a Nigerian basketball legend (country of origin of the Antetokounmpo family) such as Hakeem Olajuwonwith whom the current leader of the Bucks trained during the 2023 off-season, and which could be spent to convince him. Waiting for possible developments Rockets e Bucks they will challenge each other tonight (Monday-Tuesday)with the match to follow in live on Sky Sports NBA at 2.00and in repeat tomorrow.
