Looks like a pretty solid roster...Hopefully Zach has improved enough to get minutes this summer

Saw highlights of the first game. That’s criminal when you lose by 30+. Poor Zach...that’s what you’re up against unfortunately.

Nine points in 13 minutes. Went 3-5 on threes.
You can see all of his threes if you play around with the videos to get to "Houston Rockets with 6 3-pointers in the 4th Quarter". When I clicked directly on the video with that heading, I got something else. But I was successful when I watched the preceding video and then hit the button for the next video.

Got 24 minutes and 12 points....11 in first half. 4/9, 3/8, 1/3 1 B, 1 S, 1 A. Actually played some defense and forced some turnovers....didn't get too many 2nd half touches, though

Typical NBA.. one man, one ball. I saw him pass up some shots in favor of passing to a teammate. Did not see many guys doing that.

Of all the Forwards on the summer league roster, I do not see anyone bringing more value to the real Houston Rockets than Zach. Russ and Harden need tweener forwards to stand in the corner and make "open" threes. From what I see, Zach looks both bigger and quicker than last year and seems to be able to compete at this level on both sides of the court.

Yes. Could be he will get noticed. He now is getting some well-deserved minutes, plays defense going for the ball with some good deflections. He was getting open but not getting the ball much in the second half. I liked his first half play when he went to the hoop, made the shot and drew the foul...thought it was back in Sojka again.

I’m still livid the referee fouled him out against Michigan State. Any doubts in my mind Zach could play at higher levels went away in that game.

30 minutes on Saturday, 9 points, 1-8 from 3 pt line. a couple of nice inside plays, plus a breakaway dunk. And a few nice unselfish feeds (rare for others) Three nice games for Zach....hope something more comes to him. He looked pretty good against the summer league

For Zach to have any chance he will have to hit 3’s....so 1-8 isn’t a good look.

Agreed Mr. Phillie but I think most people will look at the greater body of work. Moose has had some stinkers from the field too but his body of work is solid.
I’m shocked how athletic Zach looks now.
