He can both score and organize! The Rockets new backcourt players are definitely capable of playing a key role?

In a previous NBA preseason game, the Houston Rockets, who rested almost all important rotation players, defeated the Atlanta Hawks at home 133-115. After this game, the Rockets maintained their winning streak in the preseason, recording a 4-0 record; while the Hawks ended their two-game winning streak in the preseason, with a final record of 2 wins and 2 losses.

In this game, the performance of the Rockets' new substitute backcourt player JD Davison was eye-catching. Davidson played 32 minutes and 30 seconds, shooting 5 of 11, 2 of 5 from beyond the three-point line, and 2 of 3 free throws. He scored 14 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals. He also had 2 turnovers and 5 fouls, with a plus-minus of +9. Davidson also scored a lot of points on the offensive end through various methods. He has a certain breakthrough ability, and he can also create threats through his outside shooting. Not only that, Davidson's abilities in passing and organization have also been explored, and he is also capable of playing a key role in this area. Davidson's performance on the defensive end is also very eye-catching. He showed super defensive aggressiveness, and his contribution on the defensive end is also obvious to all. Davison fully utilized all his abilities in this game. He also proved that he can provide all-round support and help to the team while getting a lot of ball rights and playing time.

He averaged 2.1 points, 0.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.3 steals, and 0.1 blocks per game. He also had 0.8 turnovers and 0.1 fouls.

Davidson joined the Rockets on a two-way contract after being waived by the Celtics this summer. At the time, everyone may have thought that it would be difficult for Davidson to get more playing time with the Rockets. As a result, because Fred VanVleet suffered a season reimbursement, Davidson also had to take on more responsibilities. Unexpectedly, his performance during the preseason was impressive. Maybe Davidson really has a chance to become the team's key figure in the new season.
