Houston Rockets 2025-26 Season Preview & Predictions

Houston Rockets 2025-26 Season Preview & Predictions

The Houston Rockets made one of the boldest moves of the offseason, trading for Kevin Durant in hopes of accelerating their rise into contention. With Durant joining Alperen Şengün, Amen Thompson, and Jabari Smith Jr., Houston’s roster looks stacked on paper. But questions remain: can a 37-year-old KD hold up, and will his isolation-heavy style blend with the Rockets’ young core?

This preview breaks down everything you need to know heading into the 2025-26 season — from key offseason additions like Dorian Finney-Smith and Clint Capela, to contract extensions for Fred VanVleet, Jabari Smith Jr., and Coach Ime Udoka. We’ll dive into Houston’s strengths, weaknesses, breakout candidates, and why this team is both exciting and risky.

Catch the full Rockets season preview and let us know: are they legit contenders or just a flashy first-round team?
