If the Houston Rockets are unable to pry James Harden away from the Philadelphia Sixers in the upcoming NBA offseason, the team will reportedly look to try their hand at securing the services of Kyrie Irving.
Although the team are favourites to bring Harden back to Houston, the organisation is prepared to look for other veteran guard options to help lead their young roster.
The Rockets have already made it public that they would like Harden to return to Houston, pairing him with a young trio core of Jalen Green, Alperen Sengun, and Jabari Smith Jr. While the team is considered frontrunners to land Harden, NBA insiders are reporting that if Harden decides to stay in Philadelphia, the Houston organisation is prepared to pursue Irving as a secondary option.
