    Outside of Daniel Theis, who joined the Rockets in a sign-and-trade, the Houston Rockets did not make any free agent signings. That shouldn't be surprising, as most free agents pick teams that will compete for the playoffs.

    #1 Young talented guards/wings

    Kevin Porter Jr. showed the NBA last season that he is still a talented player. After joining the Rockets mid-season through trade, he averaged 16.6 points with 6.3 assists per game. Porter will be a piece within the Rockets' future, and it is just what role that will be. The Rockets drafted both Green and Christopher, who all have a similar playing style to Porter. They are all lengthy scorers who are inconsistent shooters with little effort on defense. If the plan was to get three young Jam...

    #2 How good can Christian Wood be?

    Every year Christian Wood has bounced around the league looking for a home, and every year he has improved as a player. It all collimated with 21 points and 9.6 rebounds per game last season. This was after the Houston Rockets signed him to a three-year $41 million contract. It looked like Wood was possibly on his way to making an NBA All-Star Game, but injuries derailed his season. Entering that second year of his contract, can Wood continue to improve? The likely answer is yes, even more, b...

Players like Eric Gordon and John Wall might not have a role if this season is all about growing the young talent. Second, the Rockets have a lot of money tied up in both Gordon and Wall, who will make up a combined $68 million. Wall makes $44 million of that number, but both contracts will be hard to trade. You would hope that both would play well enough to warrant a decent trade...

    It would be awesome to see the Rockets roll out with all four rookies in game one of the season, but they probably won’t do that. Porter and Wood earned the right to be starters after last season, and Gordon might get a start to increase his trade value. It would also be hard not to start the player you selected second overall. Point Guard – Kevin ...
