As NBA teams finalize their rosters ahead of training camp, the Houston Rockets may explore trades, particularly involving rookie contract extensions for Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun. A proposed three-team trade could see the Rockets acquire veteran P.J. Tucker from the Nets, while the Clippers receive Dorian Finney-Smith and the Nets gain young talent and a future draft pick. Meanwhile, Chris Paul, now with the Spurs on a one-year deal, may attract trade interest if he performs well, especially as the Spurs look to bolster their roster. The Spurs are also linked to potential interest in Trae Young, who could add elite playmaking and shooting to their lineup. In historical context, Chris Paul's 2011 trade to the Clippers, initially blocked by the league, transformed the franchise and led them to playoff prominence. The Lakers' recent struggles, particularly following the acquisition of Russell Westbrook, highlight the risks of aggressive roster changes in pursuit of championships.
