The Houston Rockets made a major splash by acquiring Kevin Durant without depleting their assets. But the bigger story? They might not be done yet. If Giannis Antetokounmpo becomes available, Houston has the pieces to pull off another blockbuster.

Despite landing Durant, the Houston Rockets still hold a treasure trove of draft picks and young talent. NBA insider Kevin O'Connor highlighted Houston’s flexibility, stating: "The Rockets still have enough assets to make a compelling offer for Giannis Antetokounmpo or Jaylen Brown or basically whoever they want to target, even after acquiring Kevin Durant." (H/t: Sporting News)Milwaukee’s superstar hasn’t asked for a trade, but if the Bucks consider moving him, Houston is positioned as a top suitor.

Here’s what Houston still has to offer in a potential deal:

- 2027 Suns - 2027 Nets or Rockets (most favorable) - 2028 Rockets - 2029 Mavs, Suns, or Rockets (two most favorable) - 2030 Rockets - 2031 Rockets - 2032 Rockets

A lineup featuring both Kevin Durant and Giannis Antetokounmpo would instantly make the Rockets title favorites. Their combined scoring, defense, and playoff experience would reshape the NBA landscape.

- The Rockets kept their assets intact after the Durant trade. - Giannis isn’t on the trade block yet, but Houston is prepared if that changes. - Phoenix’s future draft picks add significant value to any deal. While nothing is imminent, the possibility of Giannis Antetokounmpo joining Durant in Houston is a storyline worth watching.Also read: NBA Trade Rumors: Los Angeles Lakers predicted to sign $285,393,640 Boston Celtics giant to form Big 3 with LeBron James and Luka DoncicThe Houston Rockets have already shaken up the NBA by landing Kevin Durant—but their ambitions may not stop there.
