There are only 15 days left before the start of the NBA regular season in the new season. Rockets coach Uduka previously revealed that the team's starting lineup has been confirmed for 4 players, which also makes the candidate for the fifth player the target of speculation by the media and fans. Rockets reporter Chris A. White said that this candidate may be Shepard.

According to previous reports, Rockets head coach Uduka revealed in an interview that the team has initially determined four starting candidates: Amen Thompson, Durant, Jabbarri Smith Jr. and Shin Kyung, and the fifth starting candidate has not yet been determined.

When talking about this topic, Rockets reporter Chris A. White said: "I think Shepard will be the fifth starter for the Rockets. After Finney Smith returns healthy, we will see what the team is doing."
