The rockets have the youngest group of players to play a significant amount of mins if we took the rockets top 6 youngest players under the age of 25 (age at the start of the season) that have played a minimum of 17 mins a game. This includes San Antonio, Portland, OKC and Orlando. Granted some players have not played the entire season but it gives us an idea of just how young the team is. For all the attention OKC and Orlando have received for being young teams, their younger players are overall older.

Here’s a look at Jalen’s season compared to Shai’s numbers at the age of 21 entering the season. This doesn’t mean Jalen will have a similar career but no one could have predicted Shai would turn into an MVP at this age. Player Pts Reb Ast Shai 19 5 3 Jalen 19 5 3
Finally a positive thread! Wait...But Boban and Uncle Green are bringing our collective youth up by 40 years!!!
It It’s actually 48 years. Vernon Maxwell played 10 min last night on a one way contract. Old team is old.
The vets weren’t even making the team better until recently. FVV was mid for most of the season until post all star break. Dillon has made jsut as many boneheaded mistakes as the rookies. Uncle Jeff and has done as much s can expects of a 37 year old not named Lebron
