Rockets reporter revealed: The team renews the contract with center Adams is under competitive pressure & he has received many offers

On June 12, an NBA Rockets reporter revealed that the team management has been negotiating contract renewal with center Adams, who has recovered from free agency, and believes that his positive performance in both offense and defense in the playoffs is worth a long-term contract, but at the same time, the Rockets will also face a lot of pressure, because Adams has received many offer invitations from other teams in the league to compete for the championship, and it is hard to say that he will be intercepted and snatched away at the moment.

32-year-old Adams plays as the center and plays for the Rockets in the 2024-2025 season. He plays seven games in the first round of the playoffs against the Warriors, averaging 22.1 minutes per game, scoring 5.7 points + 6.6 rebounds + 0.6 assists + 0.4 steals + 1.1 blocks, shooting percentage 60.0% and free throw percentage 53.0%.

Adams is a traditional center player and is still in his year of playing. In the playoffs, he was entrusted with the Rockets coach Uduka with an important task. He formed a double tower tactic with Shen Jing on both offense and defense. He did perform strongly and almost eliminated the Warriors. Adams has returned to his freedom in the offseason in 2025. It is reported that many teams such as the Warriors, Lakers and the Knicks have expressed their positive interest in him. If the Rockets want to truly keep Adams, they must provide at least a long-term contract with an annual salary of no less than $12-15 million.
