There’s crazy potential at every position!
At guard, 2021 second overall pick Jalen Green flashed explosive scoring talent during his rookie season and topped it off by averaging nearly 23 points on 59% true shooting after the all-star break. With a full season of NBA experience under his belt, we have a feeling the former G-League Ignite hooper will be must-watch TV next season.
You don’t have to go very far back to find a talented forward on this team. In fact, they drafted two just the other month. Jabari Smith Jr. and Tari Eason wreaked havoc on the defensive end in summer league, and the young duo is sure to be giving the league’s best scorers trouble sooner rather than later.
And representing the big men, the one and only Alperen Sengun. He might have played limited minutes last season, but the Turkish unicorn brings a rare breed of footwork and playmaking to the center position.
With all that potential, it’s hard not to get excited about Houston, even if they may be a step or two away from truly contending.

Who do you think this is referring to? Wood or pj? Ariza or the scola/Landry combo? Is it dream because he is the biggest star in our history?
I was confused by this statement because unless I’m forgetting someone we haven’t had a star forward in a while.
