Missing Zhou Qi. With those 4 Cs I think they got enough. Specially when they might go small with PJ/Ryno at C.
HELL YES! For anyone that knows this kid, he's basically been in the league since he turned 18. Always been two years away from being two years away. But if he can put it together, he might be really good in this league. He's only 22.
Rockets actually wanted to draft Bruno but the Raptors beat them to the punch, thankfully it worked out because they ended with Capela. Maybe Bruno can still achieve some of his projected potential with the Rockets training staff. His ceiling was still higher than RJ Hunter so I would rather take a flyer on him vs Hunter
Long arms, defend first player, that can shoot a three? Harden and CP3 just need players around them that are about that life. Morey trying to find a 3&D player he can slot in.. I worry because Raptors have a (recent) history of developing young talent. If they gave up on this guy, how much does he have left? I'm down though, he looks promising.
Brazillian, 22 years old, 6'9" with 7'7" wingspan, a free agent from 2017 Sacramental Kings, can shoot 3s and block shots. Has potential to develop into a good player in a few years.
He's had potential for some years, but right now it's just a long shot, if he puts it together signing. Looks like Rockets are trying to find a Covington Whiteside, etc type which is a smart play. I think those guys though proved themselves in the minor leagues while Bruno hasn't done so well doing that.
Think of all the wonderful ways his name can be misspelled!!! We have Capella... we have Tillman... now we have Cabaclo
I really don't see either Zhou or Hartenstein playing very much for Houston. More so with Vipers. They both looked ok in summer league but both still look like they need more development.
he's been in the league for awhile but not many games played 5 years experience still goes a long way toward player development. the difference between a rookie playing the first year and missing the first year but playing the second year is huge. with the right ppl around him there's potential. since he's been in the league for awhile, he could be ready to go later in the season.
The reality is the Rockets are one of the oldest teams in the NBA. They need to start developing and investing in younger more athletic players and actually stick with it.
