A young marginal player in the Rockets, the only highlight performance of the season, why did he turn a blind eye to Uduka

The Rockets are a team with many young players and a large number of young players in the core rotation lineup. Compared with other teams, the Rockets do not have strong attributes and demands for two-way contract players, and they only reserve talents for the Vipers.

This season, the Rockets' three two-way contract players are Jonathan Williams, Dangter and McVeigh. During the season, the Rockets became Jonathan Williams' two-way contract, offering him a non-guaranteed multi-year contract, thus signing David Rody with a two-way contract.

Among all the Rockets' two-way contract players, the most impressive performance this season is Dang Te. Although it is not in the team's regular rotation lineup, Dang Te's performance is very impressive in some games.

This season, Ding Te played for the Rockets for 4 games, averaging 6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 0.5 assists, 0.3 steals, 1.3 blocks, 0.5 turnovers and 2.3 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 76.9% and a free throw percentage of 80%.

This season, Dang Te has not played most of the time, but in the 4 games he played, the performance in two games was impressive, especially in these two games, which was better than the performance of starting center Shin Kyung.

On March 4, the Rockets lost to the Thunder with 128:137. Dang Te made 4 of 6 shots and 2 of 3 free throws, scoring 10 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks, 1 turnover and 4 fouls.

On April 12, the Rockets lost to the Lakers at 109:140. Dang Te played for 14 minutes, made 4 of 5 shots, scored 8 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block and 2 fouls.

Of course, when Te played 4 games, the Rockets lost. When Te got playing time, basically most of it was garbage time. When Te was a rare player who played well in garbage time.

Dangte is a traditional center, 2.11 meters tall and weighs 120 kilograms. In terms of physicality, Dangte is a mini short traditional center, which prompted Dangte to participate in the 2024 draft and thus not be selected.

Dangte is a very tough player on the offensive end, very good at all-over catch and tip-offs, has no range on the offensive end, and has no ability to score when leaving the three-second zone. Therefore, Dangte's offensive efficiency is particularly high, mainly because his score comes from the basket, but Dangte is particularly good at grabbing frontcourt rebounds.

Dangte's defense is also pretty good, with the size and athletic ability of a rebounder, excellent discipline and execution on the defensive end, excellent frame protection, and very tough rebound protection.

Because Dangte was unfortunately defeated as a senior, it can be seen that Dangte's talent is relatively mediocre. Such body shape and style are basically positioned as blue-collar players. At present, blue-collar workers who are positioned in this way are not popular. The purpose and role of the Rockets signing Dangte's contract is more to cultivate talents and reserve talents for the subordinate team Viper Team. With Dangte's talent and strength, they do not have the ability to enter the Rockets' rotating lineup.

However, during the period when Dang Te got the Rockets' playing time, Dang Te's game performance and completion were excellent, with a single offensive method, but he seemed very tough, with a good protection of the frame and rebound protection, and the spirit and appearance of the game were very good.

However, the Rockets have too many inside reserves this season. Starting center Shin Kyung, substitute center Adams, and players not in the rotation lineup include Langdale and Jeff Green. Of course, Jabbarry Smith Jr. can also swing to the center position. Therefore, no matter how outstanding Dian Te performs, the Rockets will find it difficult to have Dian Te position and playing time.

The purpose of the Rockets signing the two-way contract is for the Viper. Although the Rockets are unlikely to give the Rockets the opportunity and time to the only few games this season, the Rockets are unlikely to give the chance and time to the Rockets, but the performance of the Rockets is impressive. Perhaps other scouts have found that the chance to give the chance to the offseason. With the style of playing, they are basically positioned as a homeless person in the NBA. However, there are still many teams in the league who have a demand for such traditional centers. The performance of the Rockets highlights has added weight and conditions to sign other teams.
