Oct. 5 Rockets practice interviews: Jalen Green, John Lucas, Eric Gordon
The Rockets practiced on Wednesday, Oct. 5 at Toyota Center as they gear up for Friday’s home preseason game versus Toronto. Houston (1-0) has yet to lose in 2022-23 exhibition play after a dominating performance in Sunday’s preseason opener against San Antonio.
Assistant coach John Lucas is leading the young team for the time being, since head coach Stephen Silas remains out due to a stint in the NBA’s COVID-19 health and safety protocols. There is no word yet on whether Silas will be able to return for Friday’s game.
After Wednesday’s practice, the Rockets made Lucas, second-year guard Jalen Green, and veteran guard Eric Gordon available to the media for interviews. Courtesy of the YouTube channel of Jackson Gatlin, host of “Locked on Rockets,” here’s a look at their complete interviews and how they responded to questions from reporters.
Friday’s tipoff between the Rockets and Raptors (2-0) is at 7:00 p.m. Central, and the game will be aired on AT&T SportsNet Southwest.
