Ben DuBose: Rockets More Likely To Draft 'Best Available Player' At No. 3

Ben DuBose, editor of The Rockets Wire, joins Next Up to preview the NBA Draft which starts on Wednesday, June 26.

The Rockets hold the No. 3 overall pick and even though "they'll look at trades," DuBose says the Rockets will most likely take the "best player available" in the draft.

Many mock drafts have the Rockets taking Reed Sheppard, a guard from the University of Kentucky, at No. 3, but DuBose "wouldn't rule out" Donovan Clingan, a center from UConn, or either one of the Frenchman in Alexandre Sarr and Zaccharie Risacher if they're still on the board.
