Jabari Smith Jr. and James Harden are already Adidas teammates, and if the former MVP and perennial All-Star candidate has his way, they might be teammates with the Houston Rockets next season.
Smith, 20, finished his first NBA season averaging 12.8 points and 7.2 rebounds while making the All-Rookie second team. But the Rockets went just 22-60 as a team. With significant salary cap flexibility this season, a reunion with a veteran such as Harden has frequently been rumored as a path to accelerate the rebuild.
