One team that has done very well with their homework so far in the offseason is Houston Rockets. The Texas franchise has now become a contender for the upcoming championship after acquiring Kevin Durant via trade, and making a series of key moves in the NBA Free Agency.

In addition to signing Dorian Finney-Smith and Clint Capela, who join Durant, Amen Thompson, Alperen Sengun and company, the Rockets have also secured, among others, the renewal of Jabari Smith Jr.

The young promise from Houston has agreed to a 5-year, $122 million contract. His future looks promising, and in his latest statement to the Houston Chronicle, the player pledged his eternal love for the team.

"It's fantastic to know that you are committed to the city where you want to be. I want to be here for the rest of my career. So I'm glad that this is a good start, and I'm ready to build something," Smith Jr. stated this past Friday.
