This looks good on paper but will end up a disaster cinema as all things KD.

That was never happening. Also, by taking less than a full max, the Rockets have the cap space to extend Tari Eason and stay under the second apron.



Rockets are looking at having to give Amen a big extension in a year or two.

They also have two potential lottery picks for 2027.

So they may decide to let Eason walk.

They could. It all depends on the offers Eason gets as a restricted free agent next summer.
