51 points + 8 three-pointers in 2 games! The Rockets main controller scores a net worth, a salary of 45 million, or full amount

The playoffs are definitely going to be better for the Houston Rockets. After all, this is the first time the Rockets have participated in the playoffs after five years. None of the Rockets players who participated in the playoffs before are still on the team. The last time the Rockets participated in the playoffs, they were eliminated by the Lakers in the second round. At that time, the two superstars in the Rockets were Westbrook and Harden. Now Westbrook and Harden play for different teams - the Nuggets where Westbrook is located and the Los Angeles Clippers where Harden is located have a 3:3 draw in the playoffs, and the next two teams will have a tiebreak battle.

For the Rockets, they are now one of the youngest teams in the league. Although the Rockets are young enough, in the summer two years ago, the team introduced many veterans to supplement the depth of the lineup. Now the role of these veterans is fully highlighted. Especially veteran point guard Van Vreet, who not only has occupied the Rockets' main point guard for a long time in two seasons, he is also the Rockets' highest-paid player in the Rockets.

Van Van Vreet's annual salary this season will reach about $42 million, and his annual salary will reach around 45 million next season. Of course, there is another premise, that is, Houston Rockets management is willing to leave Van Vreet and execute his third-year team option.

The Rockets originally gave Van Vreet a three-year, 130 million contract. Many people believe that the Rockets should sign Harden, after all, such an annual salary and contract are completely feasible to sign Harden. However, Rockets general manager Stone and coach Uduka agreed that the Rockets should sign Van Vreet instead of former player James Harden. Since then, Van Vreet has been the main point guard of the Rockets to this day.

In this playoffs, the Rockets trailed the Warriors 2:3. After five games, Van Vreett's performance in the first three games was very sluggish: he had few passes, could not defend his opponent, and his shooting percentage was even more ridiculously low. However, in the last two games (Rockets 1 win and 1 loss), Van Vreet has performed at the All-Star point guard level, which makes people see the style of this former champion point guard. In the first three playoff games, Van Vreet's scores were 10 points, 7 points and 17 points respectively. But in the last two games, in the fourth match against the Warriors, he played 40 minutes, made 8 of 13 shots, and made 8 of 12 three-pointers, scoring the team's highest 25 points, 6 assists, and 2 rebounds; in the previous game, the Rockets defeated the Warriors at home, Van Vreet became the Rockets' scoring champion in this game. In 33 minutes, he made 8 of 13 shots and 4 of 6 three-pointers, contributing 26 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists, and 1 block. In the past game, he only made three mistakes. This is quite rare for a core defender who holds the ball in hand for a long time. In the two games, Van Vreet scored a total of 51 points, scored 12 three-pointers, had a very high shooting percentage (16 of 26 shots), and also sent 8 assists. This is Van Vritte. Although he performed poorly in the first three games of the playoffs, in the last two games, Van Vritte did play the performance and value of a star point guard with an annual salary of 40 million yuan.

Previously, many people suggested that the Rockets not keep Van Frett, but with their hot performance in the last two games, Van Frett reversed everyone's impression of him. He is no longer the point guard who is considered to be high-paying and low-energy, and now he has become the Rockets' best scorer and organizer. So, the Rockets will keep Van Vreett anyway this summer, and it is very likely to execute Van Vreett's third-year team option, which will make his annual salary of 45 million yuan hopeful.
