With a Game 7 Western Conference Finals defeat still fresh on its mind, the Houston Rockets are re-tooled and ready to go for the 2018-2019 NBA season.

Houston lost forwards Trevor Ariza and Luc Mbah a Moute after other teams offered them contracts the Rockets chose not to match, given the team’s financial constraints after veteran guard Chris Paul inked his new 4-year, $160 million deal.
