Alperen Sengun cannot be traded this year since he signed an extension after September 28 (Training Camp).

This trade would result in the Rockets crossing the tax apron of ($178.1M) while hardcapped. Therefore this trade is not possible. Remove $15.2M of incoming value to remain below the hard cap.

Hard Cap Reasons

Used their bi-annual exception to sign Aaron Holiday.

Rockets are unable to complete this trade. Since they are now an over second apron team after this trade, they are not able to aggregate players in a trade. This means for example, that they cannot send out two players to acquire one with a similar salary to both.

Rockets are unable to complete this trade. Since they are now an over second apron team after this trade, they are only able to take back 100% of the salary they are sending out, plus $0.

Rockets can only take back $18.0M in salary based on the amount they are sending out.

Cut $33.3M from the Rockets incoming trade value to make this trade successful for the Rockets.

Consecutive draft years 2030 & 2031 would be missing a 1st round pick.
