The first day of the 2025 Free Agency in the NBA has made one thing clear: the Houston Rockets will be a very serious title contender in 2026. After acquiring Kevin Durant before the market opened, the new additions to the team have further strengthened the roster.
Currently, the Rockets have a team led by Durant, Alperen Sengun, Amen Thompson, Fred VanVleet, Jabari Smith Jr, and the signings of Dorian Finney-Smith (stolen from the Los Angeles Lakers) and Clint Capela.
In his recent statements covered by HoopsHype, KD was very clear: "Fans are happy now. We'll see how it goes once we start playing. You know how it is. But yes, I'm excited."
"It's a new opportunity. It's always good to keep playing. I love playing basketball. So, continuing to play in my 18th season, soon to be the 19th, in the league is great. I just want to keep moving forward," added Durant, who switched from a declining project like the Suns to a rising one like Houston.
