As the best defender among the Rockets now, 22-year-old Amen Thompson is obviously the Rockets' most promising player to become a future superstar. Now Amen Thompson has followed the Rockets into the offseason, and in Durant's trade, Amen Thompson is undoubtedly safe - the Rockets exchanged Dillon and Jaylen Green plus draft picks for Durant. Amen Thompson is likely to serve as a shooting guard next season. After all, Amen Thompson, who claims to be able to play from No. 1 to No. 5, is a panacea for the Rockets. If there is a need for any position, Uduka will put him in which position.

Because Shepard is difficult to start and Jaylen Green is traded to the Phoenix Suns, it is very likely that Amen Thompson will return from the power forward position to the shooting guard position and start. For most of last season, Amen replaced Smith Jr. as the starter at the power forward, and his performance was quite good. He could not only break through the basket at the basket, but also defend the basket, and defend the basket. His rebounding ability, blocking ability and stealing ability are quite stable. Even after the season's regular season, Amen Thompson became a member of the best defensive team, and he is one of the Rockets' players now looking to have the highest ceiling.

The Rockets now have Durant, and there are also Smith Jr., Ethan and Finney Smith on the front line, so the Rockets' forward line next season should not be a problem, and there is no shortage of manpower at all. Instead, their back line needs some powerful players to supplement it. With the Rockets not completing this deal, Amen Thompson is likely to serve as the Rockets starting shooting guard next season.

Now the Rockets' social media has also posted Amen Thompson's training photos, and the text is accompanied by: "Amen has started training hard now." Now Amen Thompson has returned to the base camp of the Overtime Elite League where he played for training. It is reported that in addition to personal training, he has also turned into a temporary coach to guide the young players of the Overtime Elite League for training. So now Amen Thompson is indeed a player who is both diligent and capable. He will play next season with Durant and learn more, such as Durant's unsolvable mid-range shots and long-range shots.

Of course, Amen Thompson's defense has no problem. He is already one of the best defensive players in the league. Amen Thompson still needs to practice shooting, especially his three-pointers and mid-range shots. If it can be strengthened, Amen Thompson will have no shortcomings next season. Amen can contribute 15+7+3 per game in the playoffs, and the data is expected to be even more beautiful next season.

In fact, many Rockets players said last season that Amen Thompson was the most ruthless player in the offseason, and now Amen Thompson has already started the special training mode and returned to the overtime elite league for training, in order to improve his ability and level next season. If he can be combined with excellent physical fitness and strong defensive ability, plus mid-range shots and three-point shooting, he will be the Rockets' most promising player and an important guarantee for the Rockets to compete for the championship.
