Houston Rockets Face Offseason Decisions After Playoff Exit
The Houston Rockets exceeded expectations this season, securing the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference, but fell to the Golden State Warriors in a hard-fought Game 7. Despite the disappointment, both players and management view the season as a major step forward, highlighting the development of their young core and the leadership of Fred VanVleet. Key offseason questions include whether to elevate young forward Thompson into a larger role, how to address Jalen Green’s inconsistency, and the need to acquire a star-level scorer. Re-signing Steven Adams and extending key contributors like Jabari Smith Jr. and Tari Eason are also seen as priorities. Management is expected to use the postseason performance to evaluate potential roster upgrades, balancing internal growth with possible trades for established stars. VanVleet, whose leadership was praised by both coaches and teammates, has expressed his desire to remain with the team, though his contract could make him a subject of trade speculation.
