On June 21, NBA Rockets center Adams was interviewed by a reporter from the Houston Chronicle and talked about the situation on the day he renewed his contract: "

I was fishing at the time, and then the agent called me and told me that I had reached a contract renewal negotiation with the Rockets. Obviously they disturbed my interest in fishing! I knew I would choose to stay in Houston because I never wanted to leave the Rockets. I like this young team, and of course I can make more money here at the same time!"

"I think this group of young people in the Rockets did a good job this season, including Shin Kyung, Jabarri Smith Jr., Amen Thompson, Tari E. Inside players such as Sen respect me very much. I am very willing to provide this young team with strong defense and leadership, and I firmly believe that the Rockets will go further in the playoffs next season! ”

NBA Rockets have reached a three-year, $39 million contract extension with center player Adams. In the seven-game series with the Warriors in the first round of the playoffs this season, Adams averaged 22.1 minutes per game, contributing 5.7 points + 6.6 rebounds + 1.1 blocks, and shooting percentage of 60.0%. His active role in both offense and defense and rich combat experience will become the most reliable guarantee for this young Rockets!
