Let’s be honest: Houston Rockets picks on the 2016 NBA Draft Chinanu Onuaku and Zhou Qi really aren’t thrilling choices. Even if both players do have some upside and raw talent to be molded there’s still a few boxes those picks fail to check:
- They are both centers: a position likely to be filled in the future by the already very young Clint Capela.
- There were (far) better options on the board that could be taken to fill real gaps in the Rockets roster, notably guard: Demetrius Jackson. Available for BOTH picks.
