With 0 appearances in the new season, the 24-year-old guard is leaving the Rockets for the time being! Being suppressed by two shooters, it is too difficult to get a regular contract.

Now the Rockets have entered winning mode. After 4 consecutive victories, the Rockets' next opponent will be the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have been in poor form recently, and their core defender Morant also has some conflicts with the coach. The Rockets have a chance to win five consecutive games against their opponents. However, several Rockets players are now injured. For example, Adams has muscle soreness and may not play in the next game. Smith Jr. has not returned yet. In addition, Finney-Smith and VanVleet cannot play. The Rockets now need more substitute players to step up.

In fact, the Rockets have a large lineup, with a total of 17 players. If you don't count VanVleet, who is out for the season, the Rockets also have 16 players available. Therefore, cleaning up the lineup and leaving some room for signings and transactions seems to be a necessary choice. After all, the Rockets will not be able to trade players signed and renewed this year until December 15th. At that time, the Rockets need to strengthen the No. 1 position, and they also have a lot of trading chips.

Now, the Rockets can also streamline their lineup while giving more opportunities to young players. For example, the three Rockets players who signed two-way contracts are Davidson, Isaiah Crawford, and Harris. As the Rockets' third shooting guard, Kevin Harris has not played in 6 games this season. He and Crawford have both made 0 appearances. The Rockets may send Harris to the Vipers of the Development League to play.

Because the Rockets face these fringe players, they will always send them to the Development League during the season. Because in the Rockets, the rotation position has long been occupied, it is difficult for these players with limited strength to play, and they cannot sit on the bench and watch the game all the time, so delegating to the Development League has become a very necessary choice. The same goes for other teams. For example, the Trail Blazers sent Yang Hansen to the Development League for training, which is the same thing.

The 24-year-old Rockets guard Kevin Harris will soon be sent to the Development League. However, in the previous game between the Rockets and the Mavericks, Davison missed one game due to personal reasons, so Uduka did not delegate Harris for the time being. When Davison returns, Harris will wear the Vipers jersey and play for them. Almost every year the Rockets have two-way contract players with Development League experience, such as McVay, Dante and David Roddy last season.

Shepard, the current substitute shooter of the Rockets, also played in the Development League for one week last season, and he became the Player of the Week in the Development League at that time. Harris was delegated because he was suppressed by double shooters Shepard and Okogie. These two guards have a high three-point shooting rate this season and their performance is okay. Harris did not play time because of this. It can be said that Harris himself is not strong and has no characteristics. It seems to be very difficult for the Rockets to regularize his two-way contract.
