September 27th News Tom Haberstroh said in the podcast "Yahoo! Sports" that Amen replaced Van Vreet as Rockets point guard is a feasible option.

"When Amen Thompson was on the court, the Rockets' net efficiency (net wins per 100 rounds) reached an astonishing +10.7 net efficiency. This means that under his leadership, the Rockets scored 10.7 more points per 100 rounds than their opponents. This figure even surpassed the only team last season with a net win rate of more than +10, the Oklahoma City Thompson. Although there are some factors to consider, such as Jaylen Green and Dillon leaving the team due to a trade, Amen Thompson's performance at point guard is still impressive," Tom Haberstroh said.

"His defensive ability on the court has reached the top level and his offensive performance is also very good. The Rockets can score 123 points per 100 games when he is a point guard. This is due to the team's physical advantage in rebounding, breakthrough points and efficient shooting. Amen Thompson's data in point guard position is also very impressive, contributing nearly 22 points and 7 assists per 100 games, with a real shooting percentage of 58.4%, ranking in the top 15 among NBA guards. Therefore, I think transferring Amen Thompson to the point guard position may be a viable solution for the Rockets!" Tom Haberstroh said.
