    Yea BT with confidence is a good player. It’s weird to see a guy like him taking and making pull up 3s. If they get PT in the NBA most guys are so afraid to do something wrong that a big part of their game vanishes

    Teams can just sign unassigned G Leaguers, Rockets do not have right to refuse.

    But Rockets can sign him to 2 way to prevent him being stolen once they realize other teams are interested.

    That's how Knicks locked up Wooten last season.

    Bring him up to our bench. We need another rebounder and shot blocker with Woods out.

    I could be wrong but I am convinced that the reason we don't bring up martin or Porter is cuz we are showcasing eg,dipo,Tucker,house

    At least I hope that's the reason otherwise we are just flat-out stupid

    The showcasing is just revealing how sad they are on offense.

    This is the actual perfect scenario we are developing our young talent and at the same time tanking. If we end up with 1 of Cunningham, Suggs, Kuminga, Green or Mosley it’ll be worth it.

    Better than his dad was at 20. Please grow an inch or two taller KJ!

    Kenyon Sr. didn't hop onto the scene until his junior and senior year at Cincy (22/23 yrs old). If the Rockets can get Kenyon Sr reincarnated I'd be ecstatic. He doesn't have his dad's dog mentality but he's just as athletic.


    Video of his dad at 22 years of age...

    No people. Yall was high on jones.. I knew he was a year away. Same with this guy. The only guy u bring up is Kevin porter jr. N thats only when he mentally in a good place. Rockets fans always have this love for guys from the g league lol. It's a reason they there. Not saying u can't find great players there. But it's rare.

    He blocked the jolly Green Giant Marinovic like a pro when I watched his last game he played before being sent to the G League. More than I can say for House.

    Porter jr didn't go to the g-league due to ability. His rookie season at 19 he was already averaging double digit points on decent efficiency.

    TJones was never seen as a talented as KPJ. Never.

    And we are his jg this kid at 20 after not playing a year of basketball. Like five him some damn time for goodness sakes.
