    Podcast: As Rockets enter offseason, Tilman Fertitta backs Rafael Stone

    By Ben DuBose,

    2024-04-19

    The Rockets (41-41) finished 2023-24 at .500, and their 19-win jump from last season was the largest of any NBA team and the second-biggest annual increase in franchise history. Houston is just the fifth team in the last 30 years to follow up a 60-loss season with a non-losing campaign.

    Given those clear signs of progress, owner Tilman Fertitta recently rewarded GM Rafael Stone and assistant GM Eli Witus with contract extensions .

    With that in mind, Friday’s episode explains many of the factors pushing Fertitta in that direction. Other topics include offseason tidbits gleaned from Stone’s end-of-season press conference , as well as a preliminary look at storylines from the 2024 playoffs that could impact Houston.
