Many teams are paying attention to the situation of the Rockets forward star, but the Rockets choose to remain silent?

HoopsWire reporter Sam Amico talked about the situation of Houston Rockets' forward star Tari Eason in his latest article. Amico wrote: After successfully introducing Kevin Durant through the trade and sending Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks to the Phoenix Suns, the Rockets may temporarily choose a strategy of staying still and observe other competitors' operations during this time. However, this summer, many teams have frequently asked about Tari Ethan's situation, and he has attracted the attention and interest of many teams in the trading market.

In the NBA regular season last season, Ethan played 57 games in 82 games, averaging 24.9 minutes per game, averaging 12 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 blocks, and 1.1 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, shooting percentage of 48.7%, three-point shooting percentage of 34.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 76%. In the playoffs, Ethan played 7 games in total, with averaging 18.9 minutes per game, averaging 7.6 points, 4.3 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 1 block, and 1.4 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. His shooting percentage was 47.7%, three-point shooting percentage was 36.8%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 50%.

Ethan performed very well last season, and he made great progress and improvement. He has become an indispensable key figure in the team in the regular season stage, and his role on the court is very outstanding. Ethan has a strong impact on the offensive end, and his performance in outside shooting is not as bad as he imagined. He is becoming an all-round scorer. On the defensive end, Ethan can also play his own characteristics. He is a very excellent defender and can play a decisive role in the defensive end. It is no exaggeration to say that the Rockets' ability to win the second place in the Western Conference in the NBA regular season last season is also closely related to Ethan's outstanding performance. If he can play more, his performance and his statistics can be further improved. Ethan's rookie contract will expire next summer. If the Rockets do not complete an early renewal with him before the contract expires, Ethan will also become a restricted free agent next summer. For the Rockets, completing a contract renewal with Ethan at a reasonable price is also an ideal choice, and it can also avoid the risk of losing him in vain next summer or being forced to match the high offer from other teams. I don’t know how the Rockets will operate next. Will they complete the early renewal with him as soon as possible? Or are they also trading the possibility of sending him away?
