Last preseason, the Rockets got the opportunity to play a game against the Shanghai Sharks of the Chinese Basketball Association. This year, the same thing will happen!
In the second game of the preseason on October 5, the Sharks, owned by Yao Ming, will make their way over to Houston and play an exhibition match. If it is anything like last season’s match, it will not be anywhere close to a good game. However, it is still fun to see the Rockets compete against teams from other leagues around the world.
Last year in limited minutes, James Harden led the way against the Sharks with 16 points and 10 assists.
