There’s no secret that the Rockets are back in the top tier of the NBA’s media landscape after the past year. Following Houston’s ascension to the second seed in the West, it traded for future Hall of Famer Kevin Durant.

The Rockets will play 28 games on national television in 2025-26, which is tied for second-most in the NBA and is more than double the amount of national TV games Houston played last season.

The Houston Rockets made one of the biggest splashes of the offseason when they traded for Kevin Durant, but that also brought the superstar's contract under the spotlight since he is signed for just the upcoming campaign.
