In Monday’s press conference at the team’s new practice facility, general manager Rafael Stone took questions regarding the Rockets’ active 2025 offseason. The media availability was the first by Stone and the Rockets since a slew of transactions were agreed to in recent weeks.

Even though it's been two weeks since the Phoenix Suns traded star forward Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets, the official terms of the deal were slow to be released. That's because there was more work to be done. In fact, The Athletic reported that the trade would be historic -- becoming the first trade in NBA history to feature seven teams .

Kevin Durant is officially a Houston Rocket. And now, he officially has a number for the back of his jersey. KD will rock the No. 7 with the Rockets. He has worn 7 once before, when he was with the Brooklyn Nets.
