## Caption

Fred VanVleet believes Houston’s ceiling is still a championship, but he knows belief only matters if the work follows. In conversation with Marc J. Spears, the Rockets guard looks back on a season shaped by his ACL recovery and Steven Adams’ injury, explaining how those absences changed the conversation around Houston’s need for a point guard. He also points to the New York Knicks’ championship run as an example of a team turning internal confidence into results. From rehab to roster leadership, VanVleet lays out why the Rockets value his voice and why he is eager to play basketball again.
