It is recommended that the Rockets exchange 4 for 1 to upgrade the point guard, and the US media will give Jaylen Green the Grizzlies No. 4 jersey

Although Van Jordan broke out several games in the playoffs, it still couldn't hide the fact that he was going down.

Van Jordan played 73 regular season games last season and only played 60 games this season, with a shooting percentage of the lowest since his rookie season.

Some American media believe that Van Jordan may ask the Rockets for a new contract of more than $100 million in three years. Some Rockets fans think he is not worth that much money.

ESPN salary expert Bobby Marks also thinks so. He suggested that the Rockets offer Van Jordan a three-year contract of $80 million, of which only $15 million is guaranteed in the second year and the team options are not guaranteed in the third year.

Considering that Rockets boss Fertitta is not willing to pay luxury taxes, general manager Stone will try to reduce the price of Van Jordan, such a suggestion should be in line with his appetite. But Van Jordan is only 31 years old after all, and he wants to make more money and may not agree to a significant salary cut.

In the latest article, the US media FW suggested that the Rockets give up Van Jordan and get Morant for 4 for 1 to upgrade the point guard position.

Special trading plan: The Rockets sent Jaylen Green, Whitmore, the 2025 No. 10 pick and 2029 first round pick (Suns or Mavericks), and got Morant.

FW believes that Morant's offensive ability is exactly what the Rockets need, and he can form the three giants with Sengon and Amen. Jaylen Green is not very adapted to Uduka's system, he still has potential, and he may be able to realize his talent when he goes to the Grizzlies.

The US media "clutchpoints" also recently suggested that the Rockets pursue Morant, and at the same time, they put Jaylen Green in the Grizzlies' No. 4 jersey.

"clutchpoints" stated as early as late April that the Rockets should send Jaylen Green away and trade him for Morant.

Jaylen Green broke out in the playoffs and scored 38 points, allowing many Rockets fans to see hope. However, Jaylen Green's performance later disappointed and dragged the team down on the court. With the Rockets being eliminated in the playoffs, Jaylen Green became the scapegoat, and a large number of Houston fans demanded that he be traded.

Some Rockets fans think Durant is too old and this team needs an All-Star guard, hoping to exchange Jaylen Green for Morant.

Morant was born in 1999 and is 1.88 meters tall. He averaged 23.2 points and 7.3 assists per game in the regular season this season, with a shooting percentage of 45.4%, a three-point shooting percentage of 30.9%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 82.4%. In the playoffs, he averaged 18.3 points and 5 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 41.5%, a three-point shooting percentage of 25%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 63.6%. Morant's annual salary next season will be US$38.57 million, and his contract expires in 2028.

Morant is a Rockets fan and should be willing to play in Houston. Morant once said in an interview: Amen received the ball that Sengon had completed a dunk, which was very similar to the cooperation between Jokic and Aaron Gordon.

Grizzlies management once said they would not trade Bain, but the latter is now wearing a Magic jersey. So although the Grizzlies management emphasized that Morant was still regarded as the core, many American media still believed that he would be traded.

Morant's odds are released, and the Rockets rank sixth.

Compared to Morant, Spacecityscoop prefers another rand. The Houston media believes that Durant is perfectly suitable for Uduka's system and hopes to trade it at a relatively small price to get him.
