Earlier this season, the Houston Rockets extended the contracts of general manager Rafael Stone and assistant general manager Eli Witus for multiple years.

Under their leadership, the Rockets saw a significant improvement, going from 22 wins in the 2022-2023 season to 41 wins in the 2023-2024 season after making key additions like Ime Udoka, Fred VanVleet, and Dillon Brooks during the offseason.

Additionally, the team boasts a promising young core, led by players like Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green.

Rafael Stone was promoted to general manager in 2020 following the departure of Daryl Morey.
