Draft Review: Houston Rockets

Second Round
Isaiah Canaan, PG Murray State (34)
The Rockets, as usual, get a steal in the second round that other teams foolishly passed up on. Isaiah Canaan should have been a first round pick and should push for plenty of playing time in Houston, especially if the Rockets deal Jeremy Lin. Canaan is super-quick, a knockdown shooter and a terror in transition, the perfect backup scoring guard for an uptempo team like Houston who shoots a lot of threes. I love Canaan as a player and his fit in Houston.

Projected Rotation
PG: Jeremy Lin/Patrick Beverley/Isaiah Canaan
SG: James Harden/Beverley
SF: Chandler Parsons/Carlos Delfino
PF: Terrence Jones/Thomas Robinson
C: Omer Asik/Greg Smith/Donatas Motiejunas
