Previously, the Rockets signed wing player Kevon Harris with a two-way contract. Now with the completion of these two signs and one ruling, the Rockets' lineup has already included three players holding two-way contracts, and the team has also used 3 places for two-way contracts. These three two-way contracts from the Rockets are reserved for players in different positions, and these three players are also very distinctive players. I don’t know if these three players will get more playing time and performance opportunities next season and gain a foothold in the Rockets.
