The Boston Celtics’ ex-Head Coach, Ime Udoka, is the man in demand. Udoka is close to bagging a deal with the Houston Rockets to become the team’s head coach. He is set to be interviewed by the team on Wednesday after Ex-LA Lakers coach Frank Vogel. In February, the Boston Celtics terminated the contract of Udoka, who was previously suspended. Udoka was suspended by the Celtics Administration due to a breach of the team’s code of conduct.

The Boston Celtics had announced the suspension of head coach Ime Udoka for the 2022-2023 NBA season due to his intimate relationship with a team employee.

Udoka successfully led the franchise to the 2022 NBA Finals in his first season as head coach and was entering his second season with the team. Boston was full of hope and confidence at the outset of the season, but everything took a turn when Udoka breached the team’s rules. No matter the scandals Udoka was involved in, teams seem to be courting him.

Houston Rockets have shown great interest in signing Udoka. This was despite Udoka being suspended for a year. Despite there being multiple options available to the Rockets, they’re favoring Udoka.

The Rockets are also reportedly planning on bringing back James Harden to the squad if he becomes a free agent. The player holds a player option for the upcoming season, which grants him the choice to decline his contract with the Philadelphia 76ers. It seems that both Harden and the Rockets share the same sentiment. Despite his current goal of aiding the Sixers in winning the championship, the former MVP reportedly had plans of reuniting with Houston in the summer of 2023, which the Rockets were aware of when they traded him.

Despite Udoka being favored over Vogel and others, ambiguity still looms on whether he will get the position. Fans will eagerly be waiting for news regarding the same. As for Harden’s revival in the team, that’s an interesting one to watch. Keep in mind the 76ers’ attempt at a championship run. No matter what happens, entertainment for the Rockets’ fans won’t end anytime soon.
