Rockets Lottery Odds: Can Houston Grab No. 1 Pick?
The Houston Rockets are less than a week away from learning where their lottery pick will be standing at the 2024 NBA Draft.
The Rockets hold the Brooklyn Nets' pick as a result of the James Harden trade back in 2021. Meanwhile, the Rockets' pick is conveyed to the Oklahoma City Thunder as part of the Russell Westbrook-Chris Paul swap in 2019.
Here's a look at the full odds for the No. 1 pick:
The Rockets have a 20.3 percent chance of having a top four pick. If the Rockets moved into the top four, it would mark the fourth consecutive year in which Houston would have a pick that high. If the Rockets kept the pick, the rookie would join Jalen Green, Jabari Smith Jr. And Amen Thompson among the team's top selections.
The Rockets have had the No. 1 overall pick five times during their franchise history, and they have a pretty good track record when holding the top selection. Elvin Hayes (1968), current assistant coach John Lucas (1976), Ralph Sampson (1983), Hakeem Olajuwon (1984) and Yao Ming (2002) are the players the team took with the No. 1 pick. All but Lucas are in the Basketball Hall of Fame.

Rockets To Be Trade Suitor For Clippers' Paul George?
HOUSTON — The Los Angeles Clippers have entered an offseason full of uncertainty. For the third consecutive year since 2021, the Clippers' season came to an end in the first round amid a 4-2 loss to the Dallas Mavericks.
Another disappointing postseason run could result in All-Star forward Paul George ending his five-year tenure. George will have plenty of teams trying to acquire his services this summer. According to HoopsHype's Michael Scotto, the Houston Rockets could be one of several teams who could try and land his talents.
"George could also have a larger market than only teams with cap space this summer," Scotto said. "Theoretically, George could opt into his contract and be traded with the understanding he'd work out a new deal, which would open up possibilities for teams like the Kings, Heat, Rockets, Mavericks, and others looking to acquire another star to fortify their championship-contending chances going into next season."
General manager Rafael Stone said he would likely keep Houston's roster the same after a successful 41-41 season. However, Stone vowed that he would not rule out a chance of adding a superb talent if given the opportunity. Could that be George?
Since entering the league as a first-round pick by the Indiana Pacers in 2010, George has been one of the league's top two-way players. He has averaged 20.8 points for his career. His addition would not only be enough to help the Rockets reach their playoff aspirations next season. But George's addition could catapult the Rockets into championship contention.
