The Houston Rockets are lacking guard depth, but they have a talented floor general on their Summer League roster. No, not Reed Sheppard: It's time for them to give Kennedy Chandler some consideration.
So far, he's been dazzling in Summer League play. Chandler is averaging 17.5 points per game in his two contests. His performance against the Clippers was particularly impressive. Chandler had 22 points on 7/14 shooting from the field.
Could he perform well against NBA defenses?
It's hard to say.
In one respect, Chandler is antithetical to what the Rockets are building: He's small.
