It is not even known if the Cleveland Cavaliers will be able to convince Donovan Mitchell to renew and the rest of the franchises are already raffling off the shooting guard. The last to arrive are the Houston Rockets, whose plans include pursuing the transfer of the Cavs. This would almost certainly involve the number three pick in the next Draft, which from within the team was quickly declared for sale.
Beyond that pick, the Rockets have enough of a young base to convince the Cavaliers if they are forced to trade Mitchell. This situation, let us remember, occurs because the shooting guard ends his contract in 2025 and he has little time left to decide whether he extends his contract with the Ohio franchise. Which has been in question almost since he set foot in the franchise.
Apparently, according to Kelly Iko in The Athletic, Houston has been monitoring Mitchell’s situation for months. The Rockets, who must face the extensions of Alperen Sengün and Jalen Green this summer, are not clear about the idea of risking a trade for a potential star. But they would go for it Spidacontrary to the doubts raised by profiles that may be available such as Brandon Ingram or Mikal Bridges.
