The 49-year-old took his first head coach role with Houston in October 2020, taking on the task of rebuilding the franchise.

Houston finished bottom of the Western Conference in the 2020-21 and 2021-22 seasons.

A 114-109 over the Washington Wizards ensured the Rockets ended the 2022-23 campaign with three consecutive victories, second-bottom behind the San Antonio Spurs with a 22-60 record.

It appears that victory will be the Rockets' last game with Silas in charge.
