Several Houston Rockets players, including Kevin Durant and Alperen Sengun, participated in offseason workouts together in Los Angeles.The joint practice is seen as a positive sign for team chemistry ahead of the 2026-27 season.Former Rockets guard Cam Whitmore and Thunder All-Star Chet Holmgren also attended the runs.
A few different Houston Rockets players got some work in together at the PLYRS UNTD runs in Los Angeles, building chemistry ahead of the 2026-27 season. Eason, who was seen working out in Los Angeles earlier this summer, was joined by Houston’s stars, Kevin Durant and Alperen Sengun.
In a photo posted to social media, Sengun and Durant were sharing a laugh while another picture showed Eason defending Durant. Former Rockets guard Cam Whitmore was also in attendance, as well as NBA All-Star Chet Holmgren of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
This is a great sign for Rockets fans, as there was rumored to be a rift in the locker room at times during the 2025-26 season. With a healthier roster and star players on the same page, Houston is in a prime position to improve on a fifth-place finish in the Western Conference from a season ago.
