Welcome to Houston's CIRCUS MAXIMUS. Led by the flashy Jalen Green, the imaginative Alperen Sengun, the steady Fred VanVleet and the villainous Dillon Brooks, the Rockets have blasted off higher than anyone expected. We caught up with the squad in early January to shoot the cover of SLAM 254 and to play this hilarious game of Point 'Em Out. Fred can sing? Jalen can do impressions? Alpi loves wizards? Dillon can dress? These questions get answered in the funniest way in this video
