Amen Thompson Considered Only Untouchable Player On Rockets' Roster
The Houston Rockets have signaled to rival teams that Amen Thompson is the only player on their roster who is practically untouchable on their roster, sources tell Kelly Iko of Yahoo Sports. Thompson will become eligible for a contract extension this offseason with the two sides expected to continue talks after the draft. The Rockets aren't actively shopping the likes of Alperen Sengun or Kevin Durant, but are expressing more of a willingness to listen than in the past. Houston had a disappointing first round exit to the Los Angeles Lakers. Houston would like to re-sign Tari Eason in restricted free agency, while Fred VanVleet is also expected to return either on his 25 million player option or on a longer contract. VanVleet tore his ACL last September and missed the entire season. Dorian Finney-Smith is a logical trade candidate after signing a four-year, 53 million deal last offseason. Finney-Smith has received trade interest this offseason after having a difficult initial season with the Rockets returning from left ankle surgery.
