Steven Adams is a professional basketball player who hails from New Zealand and plays for the Houston Rockets in the NBA as of April 2025. He comes from a wide athletic background; two of his sisters, Valerie Adams and Lisa Adams, are gold medalists at the Olympics, while his brothers, Warren and Sid Jr., also share a basketball background and play in the National Basketball League of New Zealand.

In the 2022\23 season, the New Zealand-born Center had his career year in rebounds as he averaged a career-high 11.5 rebounds to go along with 8.6 points and a field goal percentage of 59.7 percent. He played a pivotal role in helping his then franchise the Grizzlies clinch the second seed in the Western conference. As Admas was establishing his dominance in the league, he severely injured his right knee and was diagnosed with PCL Spain. Therefore, he missed the playoffs, and the team's journey ended as they lost against the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of playoffs. In February 2024, Adams was ultimately traded in a blockbuster trade that sent him to the Houston Rockets and also involved former NBA All-Star Victor Oladipo.
