On September 28, according to BR reporter Jack Fisher, the Rockets' early contract renewal with Tari Ethan was at a deadlock. It is not yet known whether the Rockets will renew Ethan this summer. The deadline for the renewal is October 20.

The US media RealGM also later revealed that Kevin Durant will most likely reach an early contract renewal with the Rockets, but it is still uncertain whether Ethan can reach an early contract renewal with the Rockets. Durant's renewal priority is actually higher than Ethan.

In fact, a few days ago, some media in the league had received the news. They believed that Xiao Jia had reached a contract renewal with the Rockets for a long time, but Ethan had not responded for a long time. It is highly likely that the negotiations for the contract renewal with the Rockets were in a deadlock. US media Hoops Reference said that if the Rockets want to trade Ethan, then Philadelphia's exchange for Grimes is a good plan.

Bulls media also hope to get Ethan, because the Rockets' Van Vleet reimbursed the Rockets for season-long reimbursement. The Bulls are willing to exchange White for Shepard + Ethan, and the Rockets can get a qualified starting No. 1 position. (I think this is a robbery)

"Open-Air Stand" recommends that Philadelphia trade with the Rockets. Philadelphia sends Maxi and Gordon to exchange for Shepard, Ethan, VanVleet, Capela, the first round of the Suns in 27 years, and the first round of the 29 years Rockets/Mavericks/Suns in 29 years. (Continued on December 15)

The Kings are also paying attention to Ethan's trends. The reporter proposed a plan to send Keane Ellis + 26-year Hornets' second round pick + 5.7 million transaction exceptions, and get Ethan and 2.3 million transaction exceptions, Ellis became the Rockets' starting position.

According to the analysis of data media Ball-INDEX, Ethan demonstrated excellent offensive rebounding, defensive ability, and organizational offensive ability in his first season in the Rockets. His defensive pick-and-roll skills and overall defense have made significant progress in the past three seasons. At this time, I personally feel that the Rockets gave up on him in order to strengthen PG, and I hope it is all rumors.
