The Rockets don’t have to leave the gap? The three-point shooter is on the team, and the 28-year-old forward is worthy of reuse from Uduka!

On June 9, the Bucks' Antetokounmpo officially announced that he would stay in Milwaukee next season and would not take the initiative to apply for a transaction. Previously, it was reported that the Bucks management had tried to use a big deal to hollow out the opponent's team to force Antetokounmpo to stay in the team. Now he has taken the initiative to stay in the team, and the Bucks have almost got what they want. Wait for another season, and after Lillard returns, this team is still very competitive, and the Bucks also have some tradeable assets. If these transactions can be completed and the third star can be introduced, the Bucks will still be quite strong a year later.

For the Rockets, they should accept it since they can't get Antetokounmpo. After all, Antetokounmpo has not gone to other teams, especially those who have not gone to a competitor team like the Spurs. The Rockets can feel a little relieved. Considering that Durant is not necessarily the player the Rockets want, because he is too old, the Rockets theoretically may not make large-scale trades in the offseason.

Some media believe that the Rockets may make some big deals before the trading deadline next season, but at that time, the Rockets will check whether they will start big deals based on their results. The Rockets may still retain their current lineup in the offseason, leaving Van Vreet and Adams, and at the same time, renewing the contract for two veterans, Tate and Jeff Green, at the minimum salary.

Don't forget that the Rockets currently have three two-way contract players: center Dante is worth staying, he can average 6 points, 5 rebounds and 1 block per game in the regular season this season; another power forward David Rody is in poor form during limited playing time this season, and his performance is average, not worth staying for the Rockets; and the 28-year-old Australian national player and top scorer McVeigh is actually worth staying for the Rockets.

You should know that the Rockets lack most this season is the kind of three-point shooting player. McVeigh is not only sharp in three-point shooting, but also his mid-range shot is quite unsolvable. In the international basketball world, McVeigh is also a well-known shooter. However, after coming to the Rockets this season, he did not have many opportunities. He played for the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, a subordinate of the Rockets in the Development League for a long time, and did not get some opportunities until the regular season ended.

This season, McVeigh has only played 9 regular season games for the Rockets, averaging 4.9 minutes per game, contributing 1.6 points, 0.6 rebounds and 0.1 assists. Such a reference sample is too small. But in international basketball and international arena, it is obvious that McVeigh’s three-point shooting is at the top level. The Rockets are worried about lacking super shooters, so if they can keep 28-year-old shooter McVeigh with another basic salary, the Rockets' biggest problem will be solved. Leaving McVeigh can strengthen the No. 3 position and the No. 2 position. After all, McVeigh is a swingman in the forward guard. He can serve as a small forward and a shooting guard.

Although his organizational ability and defensive ability are quite average, McVeigh is the kind of player who "feeds everything in one move". His top-level shooting ability allows him to enter the rotation lineup among the Rockets. This season, McVehire signed a two-way contract with the Rockets. If the Rockets want to keep him, they can sign with a basic salary. I believe McVeigh’s three-point shooting ability and sensitive shooting sense will help the Rockets go further in the playoffs.
