On March 31, the Magic lost today, so for the Rockets, even if they have a chance to win today, they will most likely not win, after all, the top 3 of the record is more important, which means that in this summer's draft draw, the Rockets have the highest probability of winning the first round of the first pick - 14%, so no matter what, the Rockets can not win anymore.
In fact, looking at this game, it is true, the Rockets went crazy in the first quarter, and they bombed 39 points in a single quarter, leading the Kings by a full 11 points. However, in the second quarter, the Rockets only scored 27 points in a single quarter, but they forced the Kings to bomb 44 points in a single quarter. It doesn't matter if the game is won or lost, the point is that the performance of several of the Rockets' newcomers in this game is quite good.
Fernando once again brushed out the "double-double" data in the game, and the Rockets' Porter Jr. and Jaylen Green have become the "record night" of the two today. Let's first look at the Rockets' starting point guard Kevin Porter Jr., according to statistics, after 1 minute and 23 seconds after the start of the fourth quarter of this game, the Rockets' Little Porter has already cut the first "triple-double" data of his career.
When he cut a triple-double, Porter Jr.'s stats were this: 25 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. It is worth saying that this is also the first triple-double in the three seasons of Porter Jr.'s career. We know that Porter Jr. once blasted out a 50-point and 10 assists in the Rockets and Bucks game last season, but he has not scored a triple-double, which has to be said to be a pity. However, in this game, porter jr., who let go of the game, finally played a very comprehensive performance, not only a sharp increase in scoring, but also a bump in rebounds and assists.
Porter Jr. set a new personal record, and jaylen Green of the Rockets set a new record in NBA history! Let's take a look. According to statistics, the Rockets' rookie Jaylen Green has shot 5 three-pointers in the 4th quarter of this game, so that Jaylen Green of the Rockets has shot at least 5 three-pointers in 4 consecutive games (double Blazers, against Spurs, Kings), and Green has become the first rookie in NBA history! Surpassed chicago bulls point guard Kobe White's rookie record of hitting 5+ three-pointers in three consecutive games.
Regardless of the victory or defeat, the Rockets played this ball very "beautifully", Porter Jr. and Jaylen Green duo, has become the focus of this game, even such as Garuba, Fernando and other marginal people, can play a bright play in the game. It can only be said that the Rockets' dismal record this season can no longer be changed, but as long as Silas dares to reuse these new people next season, these new people will definitely bring valuable returns to the Rockets.
