The Thunder and Rockets were among the 26 NBA teams who opened camp on Tuesday;  the Bucks, Hawks, Warriors and Wizards began camp on Sept.  24 because they are hosting preseason games overseas.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\"\/>\n<p>For Houston, the trade adds a few interesting veterans in Favors\u2013the 2010 third pick\u2013and Harkless to a rebuilding team that just added Jabari Smith, the third pick in the &#8217;22 draft, to the mix.  While it&#8217;s possible both players could eventually end up on other teams, the Rockets could see value in keeping Jerome, a &#8217;19 first-round pick, and Maledon, a &#8217;20 second-round pick, long-term.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<p>As for OKC, Chriss, Nwaba, Brown and Burke bring five-plus years of NBA experience to a similar rebuilding situation for the Thunder.  All four players could potentially provide serviceable minutes in the rotation or end up moving on to do the same for another team. <\/p>\n<p><strong>More NBA Coverages:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/template\" id=\"facebookPixel1103097776498609\">!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function()\n{n.callMethod? n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)}\n;if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n(function(){\n    fbq('init', '1103097776498609');\n    fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    var contentId = 'ci02ac8fd1800024c8';\n    if (contentId !== '') {\n        fbq('track', 'ViewContent', {content_ids: [contentId], content_type: 'product'});\n    }\n})();<\/script>    .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rockets and Thunder reportedly executed an eight-player trade on Thursday that will carry noteworthy cap implications for both teams entering the 2022\u201323 season.
