In the preseason, they combined for an average of 32.2 points, 7.7 assists, and 7.1 rebounds in limited minutes.Alperen Şengün is emerging as the powerhouse for the Rockets, averaging 21.1 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 1.2 steals last season. His scoring and rebounding make him a tough challenge for Charlotte.
