Die Spieler, die den Basketball von Houston Rockets geprägt haben. Ikonen, die die Franchise geformt und ein bleibendes Erbe hinterlassen haben.
Nummern unter dem Dach von Toyota Center. Die Spieler, die alles für Houston Rockets gegeben haben.
The Houston Rockets, originally based in San Diego (1967), moved to Houston in 1971. Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon — drafted first overall in 1984 in a class featuring Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley — became one of the greatest centers in NBA history. The Rockets won back-to-back championships in 1994 and 1995 during Jordan's first retirement, with Olajuwon delivering two of the most dominant individual playoff runs ever seen. Yao Ming's arrival in 2002 expanded the NBA's global reach to China. The James Harden era (2012-2021) produced innovative offensive basketball, including the Moreyball analytics revolution. The Rockets are now rebuilding with one of the NBA's most promising young cores, led by Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun.
San Diego Rockets(1967-1971)
Rudy Tomjanovich gave the Houston Rockets 34 years — 11 as a player, 11 as a scout and assistant, and 12 as head coach. He survived a punch that nearly killed him, rebuilt his career, and then led Houston to back-to-back championships. No number in franchise history represents more.
