A look back at some defining individual moments for the 2023-24 Houston Rockets

I think we can all agree that this was one hell of a season to be a Houston Rockets fan. Unfortunately our season ended Sunday, but we did finish with a record of 41-41 (.500), which is a +19 game difference from last year! Let’s look back at some moments that defined this season for a few Rockets players.
