If you’re starving for NBA action, you’ve likely been turning over all basketball-related stones, which includes the NBA 2K players-only tournament. Sure, it’s not the same thing as live action, but it’s the closest thing we’ll get to seeing the Houston Rockets back in action.
Thus far, there have been five total players who listed the Houston Rockets as one of their eight teams in the tournament, which are Michael Porter Jr, Kevin Durant, Deandre Ayton, Devin Booker, Donovan Mitchell, and Montrezl Harrell. However, Porter, Durant, and Mitchell have all been eliminated, so the Rockets won’t have the opportunity to lead them to victory, like they did Ayton in the first round.
