Rockets Two-Way Trio in Training Camp | Houston Rockets News

Houston Rockets shake up their two-way roster ahead of training camp, bringing in big man Rafael Castro to replace Tristen Newton. Standing at 6’10”, Castro brings elite defensive chops and solid college scoring, joining Quadir Copeland and Rookie of the Year Sam Pedulla as key G-League contributors. With veterans like Van Vleet and Smart added and young talent drafted, the Rockets are building depth for a potential playoff push — but Castro, Copeland, and Pedulla face stiff competition for minutes, likely spending time with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Their path to the main roster hinges on injuries or trades, as they’ll need to develop behind stars like Alperen Sengun and Steven Adams — defense-first, offense-in-progress, all while building for the future.
