The Houston Rockets are back in the fray among the conversation of who will be contenders for the NBA championship. With an offseason that looked like things were headed in the direction of returning most of the roster back without making many changes, Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey did a 360-degree return on all of us.
He orchestrated the trade heard around the world — flipping Chris Paul for Russell Westbrook with four future first-round picks that will be headed to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Two picks will be swaps so it’s awesome that the team will still be able to have flexibility going all the way through the year 2026.
