In addition to chasing a superstar this summer, the Rockets are more important to keep veteran Adams. Adams played 57 games for the Rockets this season. In the regular season, he averaged 3.9 points, 5.7 rebounds and 0.5 blocks per game. In the playoffs, he played 7 times for the Rockets, and averaged 5.7 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game, with a shooting percentage of up to 60%.
, and the Rockets' double tower lineup composed of Adams and Shin Kyung is quite strong, and it is very useful when dealing with ordinary teams. Even in the playoffs, the Rockets' double towers showed their advantages against the Warriors. If the Rockets hadn't been very successful on the outside and shooters, the Rockets might have eliminated the Warriors and advanced to the second round.
Adams caused a pursuit from many teams during the offseason. For example, the Clippers and the Lakers all needed Adams to strengthen, especially the Los Angeles Lakers, who listed Adams as their main signing target. After all, the Lakers suffer losses this season. In the weak center position, Hayes is difficult to become the starter, and Doncic and James alone are difficult to compete with those strong inside teams in the West.
However, Adams has finally agreed to renew the Rockets with a new three-year, 39 million contract, which is definitely good news for the Rockets. Because next season, the Rockets won Shin Kyung's first substitute Adams, and can also re-set the double tower lineup to play. Adams can even be the starting center, allowing Shin Kyung to return to the power forward position.
More importantly, Adams' three-year, 39 million contract is not big at all. His annual salary this season is only 12.6 million, while his average annual salary in the next three years will reach 13 million, which means that Adams' salary in the next three years is basically the same as this season. And according to reports, this contract is a contract that has been declining year by year, which means that Adams has made huge concessions for the Rockets' cap space.
The 31-year-old veteran was grateful. When the Grizzlies were seriously injured and reimbursed for the season, the Rockets chose to exchange for Adams. Now that the Rockets are striving for the championship, Adams is willing to continue to stay with the Houston Rockets with a reasonable contract, which is very interesting to the Rockets.
31-year-old Adams has completed the signing with the Rockets again, so the Rockets' No. 5 position next season is indeed very stable. Shin Kyung is already an All-Star Center, while Adams is one of the best defensive centers in the league. If Landare is not cut, the Rockets will form a center position next season, consisting of three players: Shin Kyung, Adams and Landare. Moreover, Rockets' Smith Jr. also has the chance to play a guest appearance as a center. If the Rockets can leave behind their undrafted center Enfali Dante, the Rockets' No. 5 position will be the top level in the league next season.
Since Adams stays in the team, the Rockets should now focus on chasing superstars, after all, there are no shortcomings in the inside. Next, the Rockets should be confident and bold in chasing a superstar. If they can get the superstar to join and the Rockets' strong center position, they will indeed have the ability to compete for the championship next season.
