According to U.S. media reports, the Rockets joined the team chasing Siakam, and the Rockets proposed a 5-for-1 trade plan to the Raptors, the specific details are that the Rockets sent Jalen Green, Oladipo, Landale, Jeff Green and 1 first-round pick to get Siakam from the Raptors.
The Rockets have shown interest in acquiring Siakam, whose asking price includes a young core player and a first-round pick, and sources have revealed that the Rockets are willing to send Jalen Green, the core of the team, in a trade for Siakam.
Jalen Green is not even as good as last season under Udoka, and with the addition of Amen Thompson and Whitmore, the Rockets have less and less room for error for Jalen Green, and if they can get an All-Star player of the year, the Rockets will not hesitate to send Jalen Green away.
If the deal goes through, the Raptors will embark on a new round of rebuilding that will rebuild the roster with Jalen Green, Scottie Barnes, Quickley and Barrett as cornerstones.
The Rockets' acquisition of Siakam will improve the offensive and defensive strength of the front line, and the team's starting lineup will be adjusted, with Jabari Smith likely to play the No. 3 position and Dillon to play the No. 2 position.
