Recruiting News: Houston Rockets Sign Jock Landale as Alperen Sengun’s Understudy

It does not work at Houston since the opening of the market: after having recruited their two main targets among free agents, namely Fred VanVleet and Dillon Brooks, the Rockets also added depth to their bench by recruiting the pivot Jock Landalewhich therefore becomes Alperen Sengun’s new understudy.

The Australian signed a strange contract: four seasons for 32 million dollars, according to ESPNbut with only one year warranty, the first. Hoopshype complete that the fourth year is a “team option”.

Risk-taking is therefore minimal on the side of the management of the Rockets, who no doubt wanted to retain financial flexibility for the 2024 offseason, after spending a lot of money on his first two signings from free agency. There is no doubt, however, that if Jock Landale proves convincing next season off the bench, he will be kept for at least one more season.

In any case, he certainly embodies a sober but intelligent reinforcement in the painting, and confirms the desire of the Texas club to surround young people with much more experienced veterans in key positions.
