Houston goes all-in on Brook Lopez

After the night of the draft and some transfers as famous as the one that has brought Kristaps Porzingis to the Boston Celtics, the time for free agency is approaching. With James Harden and Kyrie Irving as big names, there are many other players waiting for their destiny and who can be a key reinforcement for some teams. Within that shortlist is Brook Lopez, a veteran center who has closed a very good 2022-23 campaign and who has aroused great interest in recent dates.

Strong, with wingspan and a good outside shot to open up the field, the center The 35-year-old looms as a welcome addition to any franchise. We do not know how many teams will put a contract on the table, but the one that will surely not be missing from that list is the Houston Rockets.

As reported by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, those from Texas are going to be a real threat to the other teams that want to take over the center’s services. Translation: she plans to bet big on him.

The 10th pick in the 2008 draft is seen as one of the best interior opportunities in free agency. Despite Milwaukee’s failure in the playoffs by losing in the first round to the Miami Heat 4-1, he showed his class by averaging 19 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks, including a fantastic 41.2% shooting from three-pointers. .

With such figures, it is not surprising that Lopez has suitors, including some Milwaukee Bucks who will also have the renewal of Khris Middleton in their hands, who in any case would have already decided to continue in the Wisconsin team.
