NBA analyst names perfect trade target to solidify the Rockets' title hopes

The Houston Rockets have been linked to a lot of star guards in trade rumors. Austin Reaves would make as much sense as any of them.

His numbers in 2025-26 are outlandish. Reaves is averaging 34.2 points and 10.0 assists per game. No, those numbers are not generated by NBA 2K.

Granted, those are from a 5-game sample size. They’re buoyed by a 51-point performance. Still, Reaves is undeniably legitimate.

Perhaps that’s why Bleacher Report’s Dan Favale is linking him to the Rockets.
