As the NBA season approaches, the Houston Rockets are poised for an exciting year, especially after acquiring Kevin Durant. Last season, the Rockets posted an impressive 52-30 record, showcasing strong defense and rebounding, yet struggled with offensive consistency. With Durant's arrival, expectations are high for a revamped offensive strategy.

Durant, coming off a solid season with near-average turnovers and impressive defensive stats, is expected to flourish in Houston as the team's primary offensive weapon, especially after being a secondary option in Phoenix. His usage rate is expected to rise significantly, which could lead to an increase in scoring, rebounds, and assists. Moreover, young talents like Amen Thompson and Alperen Sengun will also play crucial roles in this new dynamic.
