The Rockets won the 10th draw in the first round at the draw ceremony. According to the current prediction, this rookie is Manu Archie from Duke University. It is most suitable to ask him to partner with Antetokounmpo.

Manu Archie is from South Sudan, with a height of 2.18 meters and an arm span of 2.29 meters. He averaged 19.8 minutes per game at Duke University this season, scoring 8.5 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.1 blocks. He has excellent basket protection ability, high finishing efficiency at the basket, and has the ability to shoot three-pointers.

Recently, rumors about the Rockets trading Antetokounmpo, and Antetokounmpo himself is willing to play for Houston, so Shin Kyung may become the main bargaining chip. In this way, the Rockets can choose Manu Archie with the No. 10 pick.

Antetokounmpo is responsible for attacking the tough, Manu Archie protects the basket, grabs rebounds, and supports pick-and-roll. This combination has height, strength, and has ball players. It is definitely one of the best inside partners in the league.

Next, let's wait for Stone's news to see if the general manager can achieve this big deal. Now the Houston media has started to make a fuss. From this, it can be seen that the Rockets and Antetokounmpo are by no means groundless.
