Rockets still looking to add another All-Star
The Houston Rockets are still looking to add another All-Star piece to join James Harden and Chris Paul, per ESPN's Jeff Goodman.
Goodman didn't report any names, but with Paul George on the trade block and linked to the Rockets earlier in the off-season, he appears to be a likely target. Paul Millsap is also expected to opt-out and become an unrestricted free agent, and is another name to watch as Houston continues to shop aggressively.
The Rockets ranked fifth in the NBA and fourth in the Western conference in numberFire's nERD power rankings last season. Chris Paul also ranked 13th in the league with a 12.8 nERD, and adding either Millsap or George would bring them up to six players that ranked top-65 among 486 players.
