The White Devils turn to the East, and the Rockets 26-year-old defender won t leave? There are only 4 people left on the back line, or lucky to stay in the team
The Washington Wizards have finally announced that their new player Whitmore has joined the team. For the Wizards, their focus next season is not to strive to enter the playoffs. There are many young players on the team worth cultivating. The goal of this team is to let these players practice more next season, realize their talents, and strive to continue to play badly and win higher picks, so as to get more young players as the basis for reconstruction. So for the Rockets Whitmore, Manager Stone sent him to the Wizards, and Whitmore was also home. After all, the Washington Wizards are only 30 minutes' drive from his home.
Whitmore can get more playing time and tactical status, and even use mobile phones. Although it may not be able to play as the main player, Whitmore can obviously produce more beautiful data in the Wizards and better show his talent and strength.
Whitmore was finally sent to the Wizards of the Eastern Conference by the Rockets. This 21-year-old forward, known as the "White Demon", does have certain abilities, but he does not accept discipline in the Rockets and often confronts Uduka. Uduka needs an obedient player, not a talented thorny player, and this is why the Rockets finally gave up the "White Demon".
But the Rockets sent Whitmore away also caused some chain reaction. There was news that the Rockets might have cut off 26-year-old marginal shooting guard Nate Williams and left Whitmore behind, but now the situation has changed. The "White Devils" switched to the Eastern Wizards, and the Rockets' 26-year-old defender Williams became one of the only two remaining shooting guards, the other being Shepard. This also means that among Whitmore and Williams, the Rockets finally sent away the former, and when Whitmore left, Williams had more tactical status and opportunities to play.
Although Williams has average personal abilities, he is a very rare defender among the Rockets. Currently, there are only four players left in the Rockets' back line. In addition to Williams and Shepard, there are two point guards Van Vreet and Aaron Holiday. If the Rockets easily slash Williams, will the Rockets still win the championship next season with the three-guard lineup? There is no chance at all.
Therefore, Whitmore was sent away, which also means that Williams may be lucky to stay in Houston to continue playing. In the Rockets' summer league lineup just announced today, we also saw Williams' name appearing on the 15-man roster in the Summer League, which also means that Williams is likely to continue playing for the Rockets next season.
And the summer league is the best chance to prove himself. If Williams can perform well in the summer league, he may not be able to enter the rotation next season, but he still has a chance as the first substitute in the Rockets' No. 2 position. After all, Williams can shoot and defend, has a tall figure and a certain size. If he can improve himself this offseason and adapt to the No. 2 position, the Rockets will still give him a chance.
