‘Hungry for more’: Alperen Sengun reflects on Houston’s 2024-25 season

Though Houston ultimately lost its first-round playoff series to the Golden State Warriors, it was an encouraging NBA postseason debut for Alperen Sengun.
Across those seven games, the 22-year-old big man led the Rockets on a per-game basis in average points (20.9), rebounds (11.9), assists (5.3), and steals (1.9).
On Monday, a little over a week removed from a harsh Game 7 defeat at home, Sengun took to Instagram to reflect on the 2024-25 season.
Thank you, Houston, for another incredible season. I’m proud of this team — my brothers. We fought every step of the way, grew together, and earned everything we achieved. The journey wasn’t easy, but we stayed locked in.
We’re not satisfied — we’re hungry for more. This season taught us a lot, and next year, we’re coming back stronger. Time to lock in, get to work, and elevate.
Let’s get it.
Sengun, who earned Western Conference All-Star honors for the first time in 2025, concluded his message with the #NextChapter and #WorkInProgress hashtags.
Sengun’s Instagram post includes a compilation of photos and videos from the playoffs. The upcoming 2025-26 season will be the Turkish star’s fifth NBA season and the first under a new contract, under which he’ll get a significant pay increase for years to come.
