Rockets first summer league game! The starting 5 tigers are released: 5 players in the first team, and 20-year-old newcomer leads

On July 12th, the Rockets welcomed their first opponent in the summer league today and their first game in the summer league. The Rockets' opponent is the Los Angeles Clippers. Of course, this is just a summer league game. The star players in the two teams, such as Leonard, Harden, Zubac of the Clippers, and Durant, Van Vritte, Shin Kyung of the Rockets, did not play. Both teams basically sent out marginal squads and their own young players. On the Rockets' side, their starting lineup has been officially released. The Rockets' main point guard is 20-year-old newcomer guard Shepard. Their starting shooting guard is Ginathan Williams. The two forwards are Kevin Harris and Cam Matthews, both of whom are also newcomers who signed contracts with the Rockets not long ago. Their center is Enfalley Dante, who played for a long time last season with the Rockets, who also lost the draft last season.

Although he does not have many opportunities in the Rockets and plays as the fourth center for a long time, Dante can protect the basket and grab rebounds. He is a tall figure and willing to do dirty work. He is a supplement to the Rockets' inside position. These five players are currently players of the Rockets' first team, and Shepard is naturally the core of this team. He not only serves as the main point guard, but also in the summer league, he also has unlimited fire and a lot of ball rights.

Although she performed in the Rockets last season, Shepard will obviously have more opportunities in the summer league. Instead of letting him serve as a shooting guard, the Rockets wanted to develop his ability to pass and sort out the offense. Rockets Summer United coach Garrett Jackson put Shepard in the starting point guard position, just like last year. After all, in addition to scoring his own shots, Shepard's biggest feature is that he can sort out the offense and give good goals to his teammates.

As for Ginathan Williams, although he was almost cut by the Rockets before, Williams is lucky to stay in the team because Whitmore was traded, after all, the Rockets now lack guards. Although Williams's strength is average, his presence can give the Rockets more choices in the backcourt.

As for the two forwards, Matthews and Harris are both players signed by the Rockets not long ago. Harris signed a two-way contract with the Rockets, and he is competent for the shooting guard and small forward. In this game, he obviously started the No. 3 position. Matthews is a forward defense expert. Although he is only a undraft, Matthews has the defense that Uduka needs most. He served as a power forward in this game and signed a training camp contract with the Rockets and competed in the summer league for the Rockets. Everyone is familiar with Dante in the interior. The Rockets are expected to keep him with a two-way contract. Next season, he will become the fourth center outside Shin Kyung, Adams and Capela. However, if you want to find too many opportunities with the Rockets, it should be impossible. He will definitely play for the Rockets' Development League team Vipers for a long time.

The above are the starting five tigers arranged by the Rockets in this summer league against the Clippers.
