After getting the scouting lottery, how the Rockets used the scouting pick became the focus of media attention. However, the Rockets are also hesitant, after all, if it is used for the draft, it is also a good choice. However, the best thing to do is to trade the No. 3 pick and one of the six in exchange for an All-Star, which is the most needed option for the Rockets.
Some media suggested that the Rockets could use the scout pick and Jalen Green in exchange for the Cavaliers' All-Star Mitchell. If the deal goes through, the Cavaliers could have young players and draft picks, while the Rockets are finally getting the All-Stars they need, the core of the team. Mitchell is 28 years old, 1.85 meters tall and weighs 97 kilograms. He averaged 26.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game in the regular season while shooting 46 percent, 36 percent and 86 percent from three. In the playoffs, he averaged 29.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game, shooting 47 percent, 35 percent and 81 percent from three.
If Mitchell can be acquired, the Rockets' rebuild will be greatly accelerated, and getting into the playoffs will not be a problem. I just don't know if such a chip will be able to impress the Cavaliers.
