Ime Udoka was reportedly a “huge fan” of Stephon Castle heading into the 2024 NBA draft, which Castle and his team were “well aware of”
Stephon Castle’s team “sent signals” to the Rockets to avoid selecting him in the 2024 NBA draft, per @sam_amick “But with veteran Fred VanVleet manning the point guard position and young Jalen Green at the two-guard spot, Castle and his camp sent the kinds of signals Houston’s way that eventually led to him landing in San Antonio. Just as he’d hoped.”

SI’s @JedKatz_ thinks Amen Thompson is the Rockets’ most valuable asset heading into the offseason “You could certainly argue Durant or maybe even Alperen Sengun as the most valuable player on the roster, but Thompson's growth and potential after just three seasons in the NBA is above anyone else in Houston.’’

ESPN’s @WindhorstESPN says he hasn’t heard “any material, true discussions” about a Jaylen Brown to Houston trade “Maybe someone has called on Jaylen Brown, but I haven’t heard one iota about Jaylen Brown being truly available or Derrick White being available.”

Draymond Green is the most hated NBA player in Texas, along with 15 other states No surprise there

Kevin Durant is still the most hated NBA player in Oklahoma on @RotoWireNBA’s “hate map” “Oklahoma's hatred of Durant is singular and enduring. Nearly a decade after he left the Thunder for Golden State's super-team, the state still hasn't forgiven him -- and given how that move reshaped the NBA's power structure, it's hard to blame them.”

SI’s @TrentonWhiting thinks the Rockets need to rely on their pick-and-roll more next season “Even when the offense struggled most for the Houston Rockets, there was one play set that they could still count on to create reasonably efficient shots: the pick-and-roll.”

Spotrac’s Keith Smith predicts Amen Thompson will land a 5-year, $185 million contract extension this offseason “The Rockets are going to transition somewhat eventually, as Kevin Durant and Fred VanVleet won’t play forever. But Thompson should be a part of whatever Houston builds moving forward. That means a healthy extension, but not near the max for Thompson.”
