Knew the Rockets would get the full Dillon Brooks experience.
Didn’t expect that to start on Game 1 of the preseason. 🙃 – 5:37 PM

Dillon Brooks on if his reputation is why he was given a flgarant-2 tonight: “What’s the name? What’s my name? My name is Dillon the Villain, so I guess.” – 11:41 PM

Dillon Brooks: “Tried to navigate a screen. I might have tapped him below the below the waist, but he got right back up, and I don’t know. It’s just weird that every time that happens to me, I get picked on, so I guess this is a part of the reputation.” – 11:12 PM

No transcurrieron más de cinco minutos en cancha en su primera aparición con el uniforme de Rockets para que Dillon Brooks tomase las cosas donde las dejó en Memphis.
Daniel Theis fue la víctima en esta ocasión.
¿Lo quieres en tu equipo?

1 hour, 55 minutes to play three quarters with 40 fouls and 52 free throw attempts. Dillon Brooks had the right idea – 10:05 PM

Tari Eason starts the 2nd half (so he’s fine). He starts the 2nd half in the spot of Dillon Brooks, who was ejected with less than 5 minutes gone in the game following a flagrant foul on Theis. #Rockets up 60-55 at the half. – 9:35 PM

For those scoring at home, Fred VanVleet was the last player announced during the introduction of the Rockets starting lineup. Alperen Sengun was first, Jabari Smith Jr was second, Dillon Brooks was third – 8:10 PM
