VERY interesting that only the first season is fully guaranteed in Kevin Porter Jr’s extension.
That’s the carrot to keep him focused on and off the court.
Good work by both sides to find middle ground. – 9:59 AM

Jordan Poole is the 7th player to get a rookie-scale extension this offseason and the 6th to get more than $100 million. Keldon Johnson’s 4-years, $74 million is the smallest. Kevin Porter Jr is the only Rocket eligible, and it’s hard to think he’d take less. Deadline is Monday – 1:26 PM

Alperen Sengun has passed up 3 wide open looks in this first half off of Kevin Porter drive and kicks. I’m sure Porter’s pissed lol – 8:04 PM
