With the NBA Draft set for Thursday, there is an excitement in the air to welcome the next wave of talents into the league. Despite being far from drafting Ben Simmons, Brandon Ingram, or Buddy Hield, this year’s draft class has given hope to the Houston Rockets with their second round pick.
According to the Dream Shake’s Darren Yuvan, general manager Daryl Morey is pretty confident in the Rockets selection despite not having a first-round pick.
Since Morey’s came aboard, the Rockets have either drafted or acquired via trade the following players in the second round: Chandler Parsons, Carl Landry, Chase Bundinger, Joey Dorsey, Isaiah Canaan, Nick Johnson, Montrezl Harrell, Jermaine Taylor, Sergio Lull, Alessandro Gentile, Brad Newley and Maarty Leunen.
