First off, I believe in Chet. He’s going to be a perennial all-star and will likely win DPOY at some point

But I personally think Şengün will have the better career. He’s far more likely to age better than Chet and his style as a play making big is valuable to any team

They’re both 21 - so there’s still plenty of basketball to see. Thoughts?

    No disrespect to sengun I was pissed when we traded him draft night, however seeing everything play out I think it was best for both. It let him be greater than he could’ve been in okc as a back up. But let’s remember this is his 3rd season compared to Chet’s 16 games in the nba. Yes he was with the team but dude was in a boot basically the whole season.

      As a Rockets fan, I was hoping for a Chet + Sengun pairing. These 2 could definitely compliment each other.

      would he have been a backup for you guys? i thought you had a really bad c rotation before this year. if you mean this year specifically, i get that, but even then i could see them being a better, better fitting version of the old sabonis/turner frontcourt
