The Rockets will renew their contract with three major puzzles! The White Demon may be sent away

On June 28, the NBA entered the offseason. According to famous reporter Shams, the Rockets will renew their contract with three major role players, namely Tate, Aaron Holiday and Jeff Green. Meanwhile, Whitmore is likely to be sent away by the Rockets, who appears in the trade rumors.

To continue to be competitive, the Rockets plan to sign new contracts with free agents Tate, Aaron Holiday and Jeff Green to ensure they continue to play for the team next season, according to Shams. In the regular season last season, Tate averaged 3.6 points, 2.3 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game, Aaron Holiday averaged 5.5 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, and Jeff Green averaged 5.4 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game.

Shams wrote: "In the past 13 days, the Rockets have reached a series of important deals: they have successfully introduced Durant and renewed their contract with Adams. In addition, the team also renewed Uduka and re-signed free agents Van Vreet, Tate, Holiday and Green."

At the same time, according to Rockets Kelly Iko, the Rockets' third-year wing Whitmore has recently become the focus of many trade discussions, but the current situation still has many variables. Whitmore played 51 games for the Rockets this season, starting in 3 of them. But as a sophomore, he averaged less playing time (16.2 minutes) than his rookie season (18.7 minutes) - he got more chances when Ethan was injured at the end of the season. He averaged 16.2 minutes per game this season, scoring 9.4 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks, with shooting percentages of 44.4%, 35.5% and 75% respectively in the three events.

So far, the Rockets have formed a set of starters that seem at least very strong: Van Vreet, Amen Thompson, Durant, Jabary Smith, and Shin Kyung. Based on the second place in the regular season Western Conference last season, this lineup looks more competitive.
