Another Rockets player who averaged 6 points per game last season, will he find a new team in the future?
In the new round of training, all teams are actively preparing for the arrival of the new season. Before the playoffs, each team has to cut its own number of players, say 15, which means that some players will be eliminated.
Now, another veteran of the Rockets has been fired, and that veteran is none other than guard Josh Chris. Josh Christopher, who was traded by Houston to the Grizzlies this summer, didn't last long in Memphis because the Grizzlies had so many players that Josh Christopher didn't have any chances. In the end, they decided to sign Michael Mulder and Matthew Hurt, and sent Josh Christopher and Isaiah Todd away, putting them back on the brink of unemployment.
At the beginning, because he was a classmate of James Harden and a childhood sweetheart with Jaylen Green, the Rockets have always been optimistic about Josh Christopher, saying that Josh Christopher came in by relationship, and the reason why the Rockets chose Josh Christopher was because of the relationship between the two people. This is obviously nonsense, not to mention that James Harden has left the Rockets, and the relationship between the two is not so deep. And Jaylen Green, who has just entered the NBA, is not influential enough to affect the operation of a team. Just as Rockets coach Rafael Stone talked to Josh Christopher before the rookie, the Rockets wanted to train him well. In the first season of the season, Josh Chris played well in this season, he had 7.9 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2 assists, 0.9 steals from the bench, and although he lacked in shooting, he did not have many weaknesses in this season.
On top of that, Josh Christopher was promoted to second grade last season, but he didn't make any progress, but instead he was always on the downside. Last season, Josh Christopher averaged just 5.8 and 1.1 rebounds per game, and he was left out of the starting lineup, especially in the summer, when Josh Christopher wasn't as good as he is now. So this summer, the Rockets also had a free time, and Josh Christopher became their trade partner, almost bought by the Rockets themselves.
From my perspective, Josh Christopher hasn't been fired for long, he's going to get a new job. On the one hand, Josh Christopher is very aggressive and Josh Christopher can shine in a young team that lacks the same style. There is also one thing that cannot be ignored, and that is Josh Christopher, do not underestimate him, Rockets center Boban Marianovic is a good example, although he rarely plays, but Boban Marianovic is very popular and can often mix with the stars, so he often gets some work. The same is true of Josh Chris, who has not lost his job, but whether he can get a foothold in the NBA depends on himself.
