The Houston Rockets didn’t have a first-round pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, but they made the best of what they had. The Rockets took De’Anthony Melton in the second round with their 46th pick and they acquired the rights to 52nd pick Vince Edwards.
Now that the Draft is over, the NBA world’s focus shifts to the best part of the offseason, free agency.
After the draft, a reporter asked Daryl Morey what it would take to land LeBron James in free agency. Morey wisely dodged the question as to adhere to the league’s tampering rules, but mentioned that Houston would be ‘aggressive’ in free agency, via ABC Houston.
