As the Houston Rockets attempt to sort out their rotation in the absence of Fred VanVleet, head coach Ime Udoka will certainly need to get creative with his combinations in order to keep the team offensively and defensively viable throught the full 48 minutes of each game.

Therefore, Josh Okogie, who signed a one-year deal with the Rockets this past offseason, will be play an integral role insofar as he is capable of both producing on the offensive end and maintaining a staunch defensive presence, and, while he might not be the ideal bench contributor, his emergence as a serious piece for this team could have massive implications.
