NBA Rockets guard Shepard confesses: Thanks Houston for keeping himself

On July 10, the young NBA Rockets defender Shepard was interviewed by a reporter from the Houston Chronicle and publicly responded to the focus of the offseason's close involvement in the trading event: "The Rockets have a lot of things going on throughout the offseason, especially Durant's arrival has made the team earth-shaking changes. He is one of my favorite NBA stars. It is cool to have the opportunity to fight side by side with him. I believe that the Rockets will be more competitive in the league!"

"I know I was almost involved in the Durant trading event. I am very grateful to the Rockets management for choosing to keep themselves. It is them. Once again, I have the opportunity to play for Houston. I love this team full of youth and passion. In the future, I will work hard to polish and improve myself and repay Houston. Let me prove it from the summer league! ”

21-year-old Shepard plays as a point guard. He plays for the NBA Rockets in the 2024-2025 season. He plays for 52 games in the regular season, averages 12.6 minutes per game, and can score 4.4 points + 1.5 rebounds + 1.4 assists + 0.7 steals + 0.3 blocks, shooting percentage of 35.0%, three-point shooting percentage of 33.0%, and free throw shooting percentage of 81.0%. Because the Rockets have very limited playing time in the game to sprint for the playoff goal this season, but the regular season coach Uduka will give him more playing time and opportunities!
