The Rockets have been the first to be a guest at the draft since the Yao Ming era
From June 26th to 27th, the 2025 draft was officially held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The Houston Rockets have traded two draft picks and have become the spectator at the draft for the first time since the Yao Ming era.
The Rockets originally had the 10th pick in the first round and the 59th pick in the second round this year, but they were given to the Suns in the Durant trade, so this draft can only serve as a spectator.
Not to mention the far-reaching, since 2021, the Rockets have won the high pick for five consecutive years, and have selected second place Jaylen Green, No. 16 Shen Jing, No. 17 Ethan, Tanhua Jabary Smith Jr., Sheppard, No. 4 Amen Thompson, and No. 20 Whitmore.
Through the draft, the Rockets gathered 7 rookies. Although Jaylen Green and the No. 10 draw were sent away, the team still has 6 potential rookies, which can be said to be truly strong. With Durant's support, Space City saw hope of winning the championship.
The Rockets are now trading the No. 10 pick. At that time, if another rookie is selected, the lineup will be too young and the position is too overlapping, which is not conducive to future development.
