The Rockets are in the rebuilding phase, and while they would certainly prefer to give younger players more opportunities, some veteran players will still be the part of the team that the team needs to rely on if they want to play a relatively stable score, and after this year's trade deadline, veteran point guard Dennis Schroeder is considered to be the rocket's players that can be relied on for the rest of the game.
According to Houston Chronicle reporter Jonathan Fagan, Dennis Schroeder is once again on the Rockets' list with a sprained right ankle:
'Dennis Schroeder is once again on the list of Rockets with a sprained right ankle, and starting Sunday, the Rockets will play back-to-back against the Grizzlies and Heat."
Schroeder's ability to stay healthy is really not a particularly necessary thing for the Rockets, after all, the team is already one of the worst teams in the league, but if Schroeder can play healthy, he may still give young players on the court help in growth.
On the other hand, the rocket's young player Deschen Knicks' outstanding performance in the development league was praised by the US media Jonathan Fagan, and after Daishin Knicks could play a good performance, Fagan said that Deschen Knicks is the player who can let the Rockets see the future:
For the Rockets, the growth of young players is definitely the key to the future of this Rockets.
Finally, the US media Sam Di Giovanni listed 3 bold predictions for the remaining games of the season for the Rockets in an article:
1. Jaylen Green was selected as the best rookie
2. Schroeder plays his part in the future of the team
3. The Rockets played the worst record in the league
The above three bold predictions are not completely impossible, after all, Green's selection of rookies, Schroeder's outstanding performances and the Rockets' only bottom record are all things that may become a reality in the current Rockets.
