2021–22 Houston Rockets season

The 2021–22 Houston Rockets season was the 55th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and 51st season in the city of Houston.^[1] On August 20, 2021, the NBA announced that the regular season for the league would begin on October 19, 2021, returning to the typical 82-game schedule following the schedule disruptions that resulted from COVID-19.^[2] After a woeful 17–55 record compiled in the previous season^[3] following the departure of James Harden in a trade to the Brooklyn Nets,^[4][5] the Rockets started a new era by drafting Jalen Green from the G League with the second overall pick in the 2021 NBA draft.^[6]

Draft

Main article: 2021 NBA draft

Round	Pick	Player	Position	Nationality	College
1	2	Jalen Green	SG	United States	NBA G League Ignite (NBA G League)
1	23	Usman Garuba	PF/C	Spain	Real Madrid (Spain)
1	24	Josh Christopher	SG	United States	Arizona State (Fr.)

The Rockets held the second pick in the 2021 NBA draft, along with two other first-round picks from the Portland Trail Blazers and the Milwaukee Bucks entering the draft.^[7] This was the first time the Rockets had a lottery pick since the 2012 NBA draft, in which they selected Jeremy Lamb with the twelfth overall pick. It was also their first time with a top-4 pick since the 2002 NBA draft, in which they selected Yao Ming with the first overall pick.

The Rockets traded two future first-round picks^[a] to the Oklahoma City Thunder for the draft rights to Turkish center Alperen Şengün of the Beşiktaş Icrypex.^[8] In addition to that pick, the Rockets would select the first ever player from the experimental NBA G League Ignite franchise in forward Jalen Green with the #2 pick of the draft, as well as select Spanish power forward/center Usman Garuba from Real Madrid Baloncesto and shooting guard Josh Christopher from Arizona State University as back-to-back late first round selections.
