    Hello Clutch fans!

    I’m currently a Teacher for a school in HISD and was interested in getting a player from the Rockets (preferably Harden or CP) to come speak at my school for a program next month. Is this possible and where do I start the process? Please help as I have no idea where to begin!

    Very hard to get those 2. Better luck with Tarik Black.

    Social media would probably be the easiest route. Just my thought.

    None of the Rockets are going to be available next month. You will have better luck in the offseason.

    Try looking up their agent's information to get started.

    I'd say contact the Clutch City Foundation at rocketscommunity@rocketball.com, which, if anything, would be able to point you in the right direction. I know Clutch, Toro, Orbit, they all do engagements in the schools. We've had Clutch come; the kids loved that. But I'd imagine players are much harder to get, and if you do snag one, it'd be someone at the end of the bench.

    Would an ex-Rocket work? Chandler Parsons will do it for 3.6 million.

    Try Jeff Van Gundy, I bet he'd be game.
