After weeks of speculation, free agency starts today, and the Houston Rockets are expected to be heavily involved this year after taking a back seat the last couple of seasons.
The Rockets have been looking for a floor general for years since James Harden’s now-famous or infamous exit. They tried John Wall at the point, and as a comeback story, it was a success. However, it quickly turned sour after the Rockets decided to do a complete rebuild.
They tried Dennis Schroder for a short stint, but it was not a good fit. Kevin Porter Jr was brought in initially as a project to see if he could switch from small forward to point guard.
