On July 11, the Houston Rockets officially announced that they had renewed their contracts with Fred VanVleet, Jabarry Smith Jr., Jayshaun Tate, Aaron Holiday and Jeff Green. The details of the contracts of these five people have also been released together, which is a certain gap from previous revelations.

Holiday's contract is indeed a basic salary contract, but due to his years of fighting in the NBA, his basic salary contract is $3.08 million a year. At the age of 29, he will continue to serve as the Rockets' third point guard in the new season.

Jeff Green is a 39-year-old veteran who has played in the league for more than 10 seasons, so his basic salary for veterans is $3.63 million a year. He plays 4-5 rotation for the Rockets, and he is also the Rockets' fourth PF and fourth C.

Tate's contract is different from the previous news of 3 million a year. His contract is actually a contract of 2.66 million a year. At the age of 30, he will continue to assume the role of the Rockets' small forward in the third and fourth rounds. His height of 1.96 meters should have played the second position, and his ability to hold the ball and score is lacking.

The above three veterans are not the main players, so the three of them are officially announced together, while Jabbarry Smith Jr. was officially announced separately. Jabbarry Smith Jr.'s contract is 122 million in five years, and this contract has no player options or team options.

Xiao Jia's contract took effect in the 26-27 season, 23.64 million in the 26-27 season, 21.75 million in the 27-28 season, 23.64 million in the 28-29 season, 25.53 million in the 29-30 season, and 27.42 million in the 30-31 season.

VanVleet's contract renewal with the Rockets is 50 million for two years, and this contract is also fully guaranteed, but he is the player option for the second year.

25-26 season 25 million, and 25 million in the 26-27 season (player option). According to Van Vleet's current state, he will likely implement this player option next summer.
