US media predicts the Rockets starting 5 Tigers score: 2 veterans data declines, 3 new players rise! Rising stars begin to take the lead

There is still more than a month from now on to the arrival of the new season. In addition to Shin Kyung participating in European Championships basketball games, some Rockets players also spontaneously train together, such as Van Vreet, Amen Thompson, Capela, etc. After some time, the Rockets will officially start the training camp for the new season, and all Rockets players will gather in Houston, including the two new players Durant and Finney Smith. They will also participate in the training camp for the Rockets to prepare for the new season. Of course, before the start of the regular season of the new season, there are still several preseason games to play, and the Rockets can also use the preseason to get the lineup together.

Although Rockets head coach Uduka has not directly announced the candidate for the starting five Tigers next season, many experts and media believe that the starting five Tigers next season should be little suspense, and the main point guard should still be veteran Van Variett. The position of shooting guard is that Jaylen Green is traded, so Amen Thompson is likely to become the starting shooting guard. The small forward position is still superstar Durant, while the power forward position and center position are our old acquaintances Smith Jr. and Shin Kyung.

This is also the inside combination mode that the Rockets have been using in recent years. The starting five tigers look both offensive and defensive. Shin Kyung scores in the inside, and Smith Jr. can also pull three-pointers from outside. Durant is even a super scorer. The back line consisting of Amen Thompson and Van Vreett is first-class in defense. Van Vreett can shoot three-pointers and organize attacks. Amen Thompson's breakthrough ability and passing ability are also quite impressive. He is even an inside scoring expert.

So what are the average points per game for the starting five Tigers next season? Some US media also predicted the average score of the five starting points in Houston next season. They believe that VanVleet averaged 13 points per game, while Amen Thompson averaged 17.3 points, Durant averaged 25.7 points, Smith Jr. 14.2 points, and Alperen Shinkin had 20.6 points.

So compared with the scoring data last season, it is obvious that the average score of the two veterans Durant and Van Vreet will decline. Durant averaged 26.6 points per game with the Suns last season, while Van Vreet averaged 14.1 points per game last season. But the other three new players Amen, Smith Jr. and Shin Kyung all rose to varying degrees. Amen averaged 14 points last season and is expected to increase directly by 3.3 points next season. Smith Jr. averaged 12.2 points last season, while Shin Kyung averaged 19.1 points per game. The scores of these two inside players have improved to varying degrees.

does not mean that Van Vreet and Durant are older, their condition has declined, and their scoring abilities are not as good as before, but the regular season does not require two veterans to frantically brush data on the scoring end, because these newcomers have already started to take the lead. Amen, Smith Jr., Shin Kyung, and even substitute players Ethan and Shepard, these young players can help the Rockets get high scores, so Durant and Van Vreett can only perform first-class in the playoffs. As long as they show 70-80% of their abilities in the regular season, the Rockets can be proud of the West.
