4:23pm, 27 August 2025Basketball

On August 27, Rockets player Shepard shared his wonderful experience during the offseason in an interview with the media, showing a positive state, and being confident in the new season.

Shepard said that this summer he devoted a lot of time to strength room training, focusing on gaining weight, with the goal of enhancing his confrontational ability. In the competitive NBA arena, strong physical confrontation is the key to gaining a foothold. He knows this well and through hard training, he strives to have a better advantage in the new season's competition. At the same time, he also emphasized that whether he can stand out in the second season lies in self-confidence. He understood that only by overcoming inner distractions and firmly believing in his abilities can he fully exert his strength on the court. This positive mentality undoubtedly injects strong impetus into his journey in the new season.

In addition to focusing on self-improvement, Shepard also shows a warm side. He brought unexpected surprises to the kids from the Greater Houston area Boys and Girls Club basketball program to the Dick Sports Goods Store in Katie City. This kind of good deed not only allows children to gain happiness and material satisfaction, but also planted the seeds of loving basketball in their hearts and inspires them to pursue their basketball dreams.

Shepard also revealed that he has been training with Rockets teammates in the gym recently, including Capela, who joined the new team. Training with teammates can not only improve each other's tacit understanding, but also learn from each other and make progress together. In the new season, this teamwork spirit will be the magic weapon for the Rockets to defeat the opponent on the field.

Shepard's efforts and dedication in the offseason have taken solid steps in improving personal abilities and building teams. He strengthens confrontation through weight gain, stimulates potential with confidence, and conveys warmth with love, bringing positive impact to the team and the community. In the new season, this dynamic and confident player will work hand in hand with his teammates, sweat on the field, and fight for the honor of the Rockets. We have reason to believe that Shepard and his Rockets will surely bring more surprises to fans in the new season.
