US News: NBA executives generally expect Van Vreet to renew their contract with the Rockets, the issue is only in terms of the contract

May 25th, US reporter Jake Fischer revealed when participating in the program on Saturday local time that NBA executives generally believe that Van Vreet will renew his contract with the Rockets.

Earlier this month, the Rockets and Van Vreett agreed to postpone the deadline for the team's decision to decide on its $44.9 million team option for the 2025-26 season. The original deadline was May 9 and is now postponed to June 29, which provides both sides with more time to weigh the pros and cons of executing options and completing long-term contracts.

As the annual free agent window opens on the evening of June 30, June 29 is the deadline for most team or player options in the league, this date provides the longest time for negotiations and decisions before the start of the new fiscal year.

All signs at present show that Van Vritte wants to stay in the team, and the team also hopes that he will continue to serve as the starter, the problem is only the terms of the contract.

For 31-year-old Van Vreett, negotiating a new contract with the Rockets may receive more years of guaranteed salary. From the team's perspective, providing more guaranteed years will prompt Van Vreett to consider reducing annual salary, which will free up more salary space for the Rockets to strengthen the lineup.
