The Houston Rockets are not just retooling — they’re going all-in.

Over the last 13 days, Houston has completely reshaped and reloaded their roster, making a flurry of moves that signal one thing: they’re coming for the top.

After swinging a blockbuster trade for Kevin Durant, extending head coach Ime Udoka and veteran big man Steven Adams, the Rockets are now locking in chemistry and continuity — bringing back a group of trusted veterans and contributors.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Rockets have reached new contracts with:

• Fred VanVleet (2-year, $50M extension)
• Jae’Sean Tate
• Aaron Holiday
• Jeff Green

These deals ensure that the Rockets retain the leadership, depth, and grit that helped them finish as the No. 2 seed in the West last season.

Why It Matters:

Tate provides switchable defense and hustle plays. Holiday brings backcourt versatility. Green, a seasoned veteran, delivers poise in pressure moments and guidance for the younger core. Combine that with KD’s shot-making and VanVleet’s control, and this team is dangerous.

With a mix of rising stars, seasoned vets, and elite-level firepower, Houston’s front office has built one of the most complete rosters in the league — all in under two weeks.

Watch out for H-Town next season. They’re not just running it back — they’re running it up.
