1. Patrick Beverley

Throw the stats out the window.

Sure, Beverley is shooting 32.0% from deep this year. Yes, that is bad. We don't care. If he wants to return to Space City, Rafael Stone needs to surrender the launch code to Ime Udoka.

After all, we know Udoka will be interested in him. Beverley is everything that Udoka is trying to turn this team into. He is one of the toughest, hardest-working players in the league. Beverley will help continue to set the tone that Udoka established for the Rockets in 2023-24.

Besides, shooting fluctuates. Beverley is having a rough season, but he's got several years of shooting above 40% from deep under his belt. He could be a floor spacer for this team, and he won't eat up significant minutes that Houston should be allocating to their younger players.

Plus, be honest - from a sentimental point of view, you want Beverley back.
