According to The Famous Woj, the Rockets will have Porter Jr. and Wood banned for one game, and the two will be absent from the game with extraordinary! Something very embarrassing happened to the team during the Rockets' game against the Nuggets, with both the team's interior and exterior core players, Porter Jr., and Wood, having misbehaved in the locker room. Porter Jr. had a fierce verbal clash with the team's assistant coach John Lucas, threw something at Lucas, and the midfielder left the arena! Wood refused to come off the bench in the second half, and both of them behaved very unprofessionally!
In fact, Porter Jr. was previously traded by the Cleveland Cavaliers because of the big trouble in the locker room, and the Rockets basically called Porter Jr. into the team at no cost. In this multi-season game of the Rockets, in fact, Porter Jr.'s play is still good, although the efficiency is not high, but also sent a single game of 50 points and 10 assists of the classic game!
But Porter Jr. made the same mistake as he did in the Cavaliers, his personality problem really affected his career, although he also apologized to the team at the time, but this behavior has been made, it is difficult to make up for the damage to the team, so whether the team will continue to build a team with him as the core, really have to think about it!
And Wood's refusal to come off the bench in the second half of the game is not his only recent problem, he has argued with his teammates twice before, and this time there has been a refusal to appear, it can be said that Wood's prospects for the Rockets are really bad, the Rockets are likely to trade him out this season, but if he can't change his attitude, it has always been such a professional attitude, it is difficult to play any good performance to other teams!
For the Rockets, the suspension of Wood and Porter Jr. is a forced act, after all, they have done something harmful to the team, and the team must make some punishment, otherwise there will be a similar situation later, which is not allowed by the team! And from the bad impact of what these two people have done on the team, in fact, the punishment of banning a game is a little too light!
