根據ESPN記者的報導，獨行俠助教Stephen Silas將成為火箭新任主教練，雙方正在敲定一份合約。

根據補充報導，Silas調教球隊進攻的能力以及和全明星後衛的合作經歷吸引了火箭。此前Silas與Luka Doncic、Kemba Walker、Steph Curry共事過。

隨後Doncic轉發這則報導，他寫道：「當之無愧！！」

在上賽季結束後，火箭與總教練Mike D'Antonie分道揚鑣。火箭在之前尋找新任總教練的過程中，Silas與John Lucas以及Jeff Van-Gundy是最終的三名候選人。

Rockets were sold on Silas' offensive ingenuity, his pedigree w/ Rick Carlisle, Steve Clifford and his father, Paul Silas. Silas has coached some remarkable guards in his NBA career, including Luka Doncic, Kemba Walker, Steph Curry. Now he gets to run offense for Harden-Westbrook https://t.co/52Qfuknilb
