The Rockets are coming off a season in which their bench was a huge strength to the team in the regular season. However, several of the players were unplayable, injured, or both come playoff time.
Some veteran bench talent would be a nice addition for the Rockets for the upcoming season. It will give them added depth and some guys that will likely sign for less than they may be worth.
The forward position, in particular, was weak off the bench in the playoffs. Luc Mbah a Moute wasn’t even close to 100% and Ryan Anderson was unplayable with his defense.
