The Rockets were the second seed in the Western Conference with a 52-30 record.
They made the NBA playoffs for the first time since the 2020 season (when they had James Harden and Russell Westbrook).
That said, the Rockets lost to the Golden State Warriors in the first round (in seven games).
Via Hardwood Paroxysm (on June 30): "smallball Rockets lineups will be good. double-big lineups will be good. redundancy for games KD needs to miss. Versatility and upside with the young guys, solid role guys with the vets. Pretty good summer for Houston."
