Fred VanVleet (Houston Rockets)
June 2025
Fred VanVleet will stay with Houston on a two-year, $50M deal with a 2026–27 player option. The Rockets declined his $44.9M team option to re-sign him under new terms that offer greater cap flexibility.
VanVleet’s playoff leadership and consistency in Houston’s resurgence were key to the deal. Both sides expect the partnership to continue beyond the two-year agreement as the Rockets build around Kevin Durant and coach Ime Udoka’s long-term vision.
