The Houston Rockets were near the bottom of the rankings in many categories. From points per game to three-point percentage, the Rockets struggled to say the least. Another one of those categories was bench play. The Rockets, at times, would stay close for parts of the first quarter only to see the second unit come in, and the game would start to slip away slowly.
Surprisingly, the Rockets were top five points per game off the bench in the 2021-22 season. Of course, that had a lot to do with rookie at the time Alperen Sengun.
