Can Rome Odunze reclaim his spot as the Bears' top receiver in 2026?
The Houston Rockets are considering a trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo after a disappointing playoff exit. Amen Thompson is viewed as a key player the Rockets would prefer to keep out of any potential trade deal.

The Houston Rockets surely would've wanted a better playoff run than a first-round exit at the hands of a Los Angeles Lakers team that didn't even have Luka Doncic.
But that's the reality of how the Rockets season ended, and now they'll have to consider if there are any big moves to make this offseason. Namely, will they end up in the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade sweepstakes?
Well, there seems to be some consensus on this. The Rockets have an argument to trade for Antetokounmpo as long as Amen Thompson isn't involved.
"An Antetokounmpo trade is something Houston would need to consider but only if Thompson is not included," ESPN's Bobby Marks wrote as part of a new article on Thursday.
Amen Thompson is seen as a crucial player that the Rockets want to retain in any trade discussions for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Rockets were eliminated in the first round by the Los Angeles Lakers, who played without star player Luka Doncic.
Acquiring Giannis Antetokounmpo could significantly enhance the Rockets' competitiveness and reshape their roster for future seasons.

Who does that leave?
Alperen Sengun would be the best available talent.
Reed Sheppard and Jabari Smith Jr. are both quality young talents.
Fred VanVleet, if he opts in to his player option, would be the salary to help get the deal done.
"That might lead to Milwaukee debating whether a Sengun and Myles Turner combination could work or if a third team would be needed for shipping either player," Marks writes.
The Rockets also have less draft capital than some of the teams that will be going after Giannis, but they've got quality if not quantity.
"Houston does not have a first-round pick in this year's draft but does have valuable assets starting in 2027, including swap rights with Brooklyn and an unprotected first-rounder from Phoenix," Marks writes. "In 2029, Houston has two of the more favorable picks between its own and those of Dallas and Phoenix."
This deal could come down to whether the Rockets do indeed hold firm on Thompson, and to what the Bucks feel about Sengun.
Houston could clearly use Antetokounmpo, if the price is right.
