The Houston Rockets struck draft gold on draft night by not only getting one projected top-five player in Amen Thompson, but they were also able to get two top-five talents, as Cam Whitmore, to the surprise of many, fell to the 20th pick, and the Rockets didn't waste any time.
The Rockets introduced both Thompson and Whitmore on Monday, and both have chosen their numbers. Thompson will go with number one, which was worn by players like Trevor Ariza and, more famously, Tracy McGrady, and Whitmore will wear number seven, which has been worn by everyone from Jeremy Lin to Armoni Brooks.
