Houston Rockets

The Houston Rockets would really have to do some salary gymnastics, but they’ve always managed to put themselves in position to be players in free agency seemingly every summer. Why would this offseason be any different?

Short of beating the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals, it’s going to be pretty evident that the Rockets need more than just James Harden. Kyle Lowry could be the sidekick that Mike D’Antoni seeks for Harden.

Lowry played with the Rockets for three and a half seasons before playing for the Raptors. During his stint with Houston, he averaged 12 points, six assists and five rebounds. If Houston wants to add more firepower to their backcourt, Lowry would be the perfect man to take a chance on.
