Rockets can benefit from Kyrie Irving trade request in several ways
How can the Rockets exploit the situation in Brooklyn? | Wendell Cruz-USA TODAY Sports Some of the potential benefits are obvious: others, less so. And on the eighth day, God gave us...Brooklyn Nets trade requests. It’s hard to get excited about the Houston Rockets right now — unless you’re running the Tankathon odds, that is. Otherwise, we’ve got the blossoming Alperen Sengun / KJ Martin pick-and-roll pairing, Tari Eason offensive rebounds, and...yeah. Until this weekend. If you somehow missed it, Kyrie Irving requested a trade from the Brooklyn Nets. This...

Houston Rockets vs. Toronto Raptors game preview
Dan Hamilton-USA TODAY Sports The Houston Rockets limp into tonight’s contest with the Toronto Raptors on a rare two-game winning streak. Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr. are out, so Alperen Sengun and co. will have to put in extra work to extend the streak to three. The Toronto Raptors are 23-30 and in 12th place in the Eastern Conference. That’s obviously a surprise, and their point differential (yes, a flawed statistic) has them as more of a seventh seed than their current position. Toronto poses a threat to Houston in more ways than just as an opponent on the...

Alperen Sengun goes full Nikola Jokic with unreal no-look, behind-the-back pass
There hasn’t been much for the Houston Rockets to smile about over the past couple of seasons as they’ve endured some bad basketball and lottery finishes. But one strong development has been the emergence of second-year center Alperen Sengun. Sengun has arguably become the Rockets best player and he already has some dazzling accomplishments on […] The post Alperen Sengun goes full Nikola Jokic with unreal no-look, behind-the-back pass appeared first on ClutchPoints.

Houston Rockets vs. Oklahoma City Thunder game preview
Erik Williams-USA TODAY Sports Tonight, the Houston Rockets look to start a winning streak when they take on the upstart Oklahoma City Thunder. Obviously, OKC and Houston are tied together for a variety of reasons: the James Harden trade, the Russell Westbrook trade (and the draft picks entailed), the 2021 NBA Draft Lottery, the 2022 NBA Draft Lottery, the Alperen Sengun trade, and the general idea that both of these teams decided to start tanking around the same time. So of course, everyone wants to compare the two teams. And on paper, the Thunder are winning the...

Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards had the basketball world buzzing after he posterized Houston Rockets big man Alperen Sengun on Saturday not once, but twice in the same game.

Houston Rockets vs. Cleveland Cavaliers game preview
Thomas Shea-USA TODAY Sports Coming off a loss that included another Alperen Sengun triple double, the Houston Rockets must now turn their attention to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs started 8-1, and Rockets fans everywhere braced for the inevitable “Evan Mobley is way better than Jalen Green” talk that permeated the first half of last season. However, the Cavs are 21-19 since that blistering start. Mobley’s still having a great year, by the way. And the “comparing two players drafted back-to-back” thing is such a dumb move. Anyway, the Rockets are still...

A Look to the Future: Choose your own Rockets adventure
Is Alperen Sengun the future of the Rockets? | Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports Here are five hypothetical futures for the team. Which do you prefer? They say that if you want something, you should picture it. Visualize the action, actualize the vision. Does it work? Is it just self-help guru pseudoscience? Well, it’s not science.
