Here are the coaches the Houston Rockets should be targeting
ROCKETS COACHING SEARCH
11 April 2023
The Houston Rockets fired head coach Stephen Silas this week, and the team has been linked to several names to replace him.
Which ones make the most sense?
Ime Udoka, Frank Vogel, Kenny Atkinson, and Nick Nurse have all been mentioned as possibilities.
ESPN Houston's Jake Asman, Brad Kellner, and Cody Stoots discuss on The Wheelhouse.

To say the Houston Texans have been busy this week would be a colossal understatement. The team agreed to a massive contract extension with All-Pro corner Derek Stingley Jr, restructured lineman Tytus Howard's contract, and signed free agent left tackle Cam Robinson to a one-year deal.
The #Texans and Danielle Hunter have agreed to a one-year, $35.6 million contract extension that makes him the NFL’s second-highest paid defensive end, per sources.

Texans GM Nick Caserio is definitely earning his paycheck this week, as there is now another extension to discuss. According to multiple reports, pass rusher Danielle Hunter has agreed to a one-year, $35.6 million extension.
Tom Pelissero is reporting in the post above that “Hunter will make $32M this season — a $12.5M raise — and $55.1M ($54.1M fully guaranteed) over the next two seasons.”
Good work if you can get it.
The Texans are making a strong push to equip QB C.J. Stroud with top talent over the next two years. This is the ideal window to invest before they face a hefty commitment to his second contract.
With fewer pressing needs, Houston can now approach the draft with flexibility, prioritizing the best players available.
