TA: The Rockets intend to keep Aaron Holiday, Tate & Jeff Green will get the veteran s basic salary if he stays in the team

June 3rd news According to The Athletic reporter Kelly Iko, the Rockets are preparing to increase Shepard's playing time next season. Although this will reduce the role space of veteran Aaron Holiday, whose contract next season is a team option of $4.9 million, the Rockets say they are interested in keeping him.

It is reported that the Rockets are more likely to wait and see how the lineup is finally built and market trends before making a decision. This situation also applies to Jeff Green and Tate, who are about to become full free agents. Although the Rockets have a good impression of both of them, they may end up with only a veteran's basic salary contract.
