Rockets continue to win the gods! Renew 3 people with high cost performance, get KD for transactions, leave behind meritorious veterans

On June 30, 2025, the most active team in the NBA recently was the Rockets' famous reporter Shams Charania, reported that several sources revealed that Jabarri Smith Jr. plans to sign a five-year, 122 million early contract renewal with the Rockets, and there is no team or player option for this contract. The signing of

also made fans excited. After all, in the current league, players like Xiao Jia, who have good framing protection and defense switching are very popular. Being able to keep him with an average salary of less than US$25 million is indeed a very good signing.

In addition to renewing Xiao Jia, the Rockets have also been continuously operating in the past half month. They first renewed Adams for three years and $39 million, and then signed a two-year, $50 million contract with VanVleet, which also caused VanVleet to cut his salary significantly. Then he renewed Xiao Jia for 5 years and $122 million. These three contracts were all extremely cost-effective. In addition to renewing the contract, they also gave Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks through the transaction, and the transaction was obtained by Durant. Previously, the team also signed a long-term contract with head coach Uduka and planned to keep veterans like Tate, Holiday and Jeff Green. Every move of the team was excellent.

The team still has a lot of room for operation next, and whether it is trading or signing free agents, they can have the chance to get good players. If Ethan can be kept with a very cost-effective contract, it will be a perfect offseason for the Rockets.
