I think you may be talking about NBA rookie point guards. I've been talking about college freshman point guards. Either way, pretty uncommon. I'm glad Uzan is coming back. Who knows what this incoming freshman will be like.

Sisyphus : or maybe the Suns' unprotected 1st round pick in 2027 that the Rockets didn't have to give up in today's trade.

asasolid2r : Or Eason, Jabari, Whitmore or even Sheppard.

This is an amazing outcome for Houston.

Great call, this should be a better team with decent health. Maybe even great if Whitmore can learn how to stay out of the doghouse.

Fanofdogs : true, but Sampson will play 3 guards most of the time, but I expect Usan will usually run point.

K C Jones? He was the back up to Cousy for several years in early career.

Sam Jones was the shooting guard, known for never passing up a shot.

Both Hall of Famers.
