In the Houston Rockets, in addition to Alperen Shinjing and Jalen Green, Jabari Smith should be the most favored player. After all, before the start of the draft that year, he was the top pick, and in the end, the market declined and he was also selected by the Rockets with a probe lottery, and his performance in the first two years of his career is also worthy of recognition.
Jabari Smith is averaging 13.7 points, 8.1 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game this season, so the local media has also given a template for how the Rockets forward will develop. Jabari Smith is guaranteed to be a qualified shooter, just like the peak Channing Frye, a more realistic template is that Rashad Lewis has a stronger defense, and the ceiling is comparable to 11-time All-Star Chris Bosh, the Heat's former third big man.
Channing Frye is not well-known, but he has averaged double-digit points per game in five seasons, and Channing Frye has accurate outside shooting, shooting 38.8% from three-point range in his career. Channing Frye is the kind of puzzle winner, having made it to the Western Conference finals with the Suns and entering the twilight of his career, and then moved to the Cavaliers in the middle of the 15-16 season and won the championship with the team, during which time Channing Frye was also a major interior rotation. Of course, he's more one-dimensional, and since Jabari Smith is a scout, it might be a little disappointing if the focus is on cultivating "just" to reach the Channing-Frye heights.
As for Rashad Lewis, he has been selected as an All-Star twice and has also received a contract with a total salary of more than 100 million. It's just that Rashad Lewis's comments are basically high salaries and low abilities, which is somewhat misunderstood. After all, Rashad Lewis has averaged double digits in points per game for most of his career, and there is no problem as a three-in-command, and he won the championship with the Heat in the twilight of his career.
Needless to say, Chris Bosh was an All-Star during his time with the Raptors, and in the summer of 2010, Chris Bosh switched to the Heat to form a big three with LeBron James and Dwayne Wade, and thus ushered in the peak of his career. Chris Bosh has reached the Finals with the Heat for four consecutive years, winning two championships, and there is no shortage of personal honors.
