Following Curry Irving and Wen s post-team league, the only cornerstone of the future of Amen Rockets

The Rockets official website posted a video caption today and wrote: The only bounce in the league is 99, Amen Thompson. The Rockets official also @ 2K26. Although this is the game value, the official ended up telling Amenbei that this roughly means. "Games are games, but games are also based on reality, right?" There is no need to say much about the value of the only 99 players in the league. There is only a few players in the league that have this honor. Curry is the only three-pointers in the 99th three-pointers, Irving is the only one in the dribble league, and Wenban Yama is the only one in the 99th blocking league. However, compared with these three top NBA stars, Amen may not have made a "99th only" poster for him because of his lack of popularity.
Amen's basic data last season is well known. As a sophomore rookie, Amen Thompson has shown comprehensive skills, and can average comprehensive data of 14.1 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.3 blocks per game. Such a performance makes him one of the most promising young players in the league.
Amen Thompson's amazing bounce ability is not only reflected in the game, but also common in actual combat. According to official NBA statistics, Thompson ranked first among rookie guards last season, even surpassing many inside players. He averaged 2.7 offensive rebounds per game, which ranks among the top of all guards.
Amen's most surprising season is the influence of the blocking segment. All inside players can rank 1.3 blocks, which shows that he can not only use bounces to protect the basket, but also provide strong auxiliary defense support in defensive rotation. But I still have to say that Amen is not the same as other traditional defenders. Sometimes he will stand three on the defensive end, so it is normal for him to look better than ordinary guards in tactical terms.
For Amen, his biggest problem at the moment is still what everyone knows: shooting. In fact, Amen is different from other players who have stable shooting. He is not the kind of iron man who makes home team fans look at the brain hemorrhage. His shooting choice is quite reasonable, with a two-point shooting percentage of 51.2% last season, mainly focusing on the offense at the basket and a certain mid-range jump shot. So Amen’s problem is different from those players who blindly shoot. In fact, his biggest problem is that he cannot shoot, and he will not shoot randomly.
According to the video released by Amen's team this offseason, he has a lot of offensive footage, and not only that, he also played a lot of 1v1 singles highlights, such as Dwyne Mitchell of the Heat.
From a tactical perspective, if Amen practices singles, he will completely change the Rockets' offensive system. The Rockets currently lack a reliable breakthrough player and often need to cooperate with complex tactics to create scoring opportunities. If Amen can use his amazing physical talent and explosive power to form a single-point blasting ability on the offensive end, it will greatly enrich the Rockets' offensive choices. The defense will have to invest more resources to limit his breakthrough, which will naturally create more open opportunities for the outside shooter.
data shows that the Rockets only ranked 22nd in the league in singles efficiency at critical moments last season. If Amen develops singles ability, it will directly improve the team's scoring guarantee when the score is in a stalemate. His vertical bounce ability and physical control are enough to allow him to complete a difficult end, which is particularly precious in the final moments of the game. So Amen is definitely the only future cornerstone for the Rockets.
