The Houston Rockets are out of the All-Star Break with their sights set on finishing out the season strong. There’s a lot of the line for this team to succeed, considering that Daryl Morey has conducted the equivalent of two Hail Mary passes in their 2019-20 campaign.
The first, of course, was when the Houston Rockets traded away Chris Paul for Russell Westbrook with a plethora of future draft picks in between in the near future. It’s tough to tell what this team will look like in 2026, the last season of which the team will no longer have to send picks over to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
