The Houston Rockets, after almost a decade of not being involved in the first round of NBA drafts, had four first-round picks last year. First, of course, Jalen Green was the number two overall pick who started slow but torched the league the last few weeks of the year. Then, you had a surprise pick at 16 when the Rockets traded into the spot to select Alperen Sengun. The Rockets also selected Josh Christopher with the 24th overall pick.
Each of the three players mentioned earlier has had an impact throughout the year for the Rockets.
