On June 15, the Rockets welcomed three good news today. For the Rockets, although chasing superstars is very important, then again, if the Rockets no longer introduce top stars like Durant or Antetokounmpo this summer, it is actually no big deal. The Rockets are already the second most powerful team in the Western Conference's regular season this season. If they can make some minor repairs and add an outside shooter or a forward attacker, the Rockets can get better next season.

However, it seems that it is very urgent to keep Adams, and today the Rockets have good news: According to reports, the Rockets finally finalized their contract renewal. 31-year-old veteran center Steven Adams agreed to renew the Rockets with a three-year contract of 39 million, and the three-year contract is fully guaranteed, which is also a big gift from the Rockets to Adams. After Adams became a free agent, he still chose to stay in the Houston Rockets among many teams, which is also Adams' affirmation of Space City. After leaving Adams, the Rockets' inside line becomes stronger. If another fourth center can be added, the Rockets' inside position will not have many shortcomings next season.

The second good news comes from superstar Durant. It has been reported that Durant's potential next players include the Spurs, Rockets, Timberwolves, Knicks and Heat. Now the Knicks are almost out, while the Spurs don't want to trade too many chips for Durant. Although there are some reports that the Timberwolves are leading the Durant battle, it is also reported that Durant wants to go to the most are the Rockets and San Antonio Spurs.

After all, a few days ago, there was a news that Durant wanted to join a Texas team. He studied at the University of Texas that year, so this is one of the reasons why he has a very good impression of the Texas team. According to a joint report by famous NBA reporter Sam Amik and Rockets reporter Kelly Iko, multiple sources in the league revealed that Durant's two preferred deals are the Rockets and the Spurs.

Although there is another news that Durant's wish may not come true, the teams Durant wants to go to are naturally the Spurs and Rockets - because both teams have good lineups. After Durant goes, they will immediately become the top teams in the Western Conference and even have the opportunity to compete for the NBA championship. Although the deal is still in progress, it is obvious that Durant wants to go to the Rockets, and the Suns have to consider Durant's opinion when trading him. The third good news is about Rockets main point guard Fred Van Villett. Because Van Vreet is on the team option, the Rockets must decide whether to execute his third-year team option before the end of this month. Van Vreett's last year's contract reached 44.89 million, but it is reported that the Rockets are not planning to execute his team options, but instead sign him a longer and lower-paying contract.

And the latest news shows that according to sources, both the Rockets and defender Van Vreet are interested in reuniting, that is, Van Vreet still wants to stay with the Rockets, and the Rockets don't want to let the 31-year-old star point guard go. After all, Van Vreet's performance in the playoffs was very impressive. Although it was not worth a contract of 44.89 million, a long-term contract renewal with a salary cut was willing to bear.
