Top Tari Eason News

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Ruled out for Thursday

    Eason (ankle) won't play Thursday versus the Thunder.

    Thursday will mark the third consecutive game on the sidelines for Eason, but perhaps he'll be able to get back out there for Friday's game versus the Timberwolves. Aaron Holiday and Josh Okogie have alternated starts the past two games with Eason unavailable, so it'll be interesting to see who gets the call Wednesday evening.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Won't play vs. Bulls

    Eason (ankle) is out for Tuesday's game against the Bulls.

    Eason will miss a second straight game due to a right ankle sprain. Aaron Holiday saw a sizable uptick in playing time Sunday in Eason's absence, though Josh Okogie is also a candidate to see more chances Tuesday.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Ruled out for Sunday

    Eason (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings.

    Eason will miss Sunday's contest after spraining his right ankle in Friday's loss to Portland. His next opportunity to play will come Tuesday against the Bulls. With the 24-year-old forward sidelined, Josh Okogie and Dorian Finney-Smith are candidates for increased playing time, while Jae'Sean Tate could enter the Houston rotation.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Leaves early with ankle sprain

    Eason won't return to Friday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a right ankle sprain, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

    Eason logged under 16 minutes before exiting the game with 8:32 remaining in the third quarter, and he'll finish the night with six points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Sunday's game against the Kings.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Fails to beat clock with final shot

    Eason ended with 15 points (5-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 103-102 loss to the Trail Blazers.

    Although Eason sank the potential game-winner with time expiring, the shot was waved off after the team cleared the bench, assuming a victory. Eason was a great help to Houston with Alperen Sengun (ankle) sidelined, and the former led the squad with 13 boards. Eason fared much better than teammate Jabari Smith, who fell short of a decent result after projections placed him with a higher total in the injury scenario.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Maintaining starting role

    Eason finished with 12 points (5-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Monday's 100-97 win over Phoenix.

    Eason appears to be cementing himself as a starter for the Rockets, which is perhaps solidified even more by the absence of Alperen Sengun (ankle). Eason has averaged 13.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 0.8 blocks in 27.1 minutes per contest over his last six games, shooting 44.0 percent from beyond the arc as well.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Good to go Thursday

    Eason (illness) will play Thursday against the Nets, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.

    Eason was able to shake off his questionable tag for this contest. With Steven Adams (ankle) and Clint Capela (illness) sidelined, the Rockets could utilize smaller lineups Thursday to the benefit of someone like Eason.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Iffy for Thursday

    Eason (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Nets.

    Eason is under the weather and is in jeopardy of missing Thursday's contest. If the 24-year-old forward is ultimately ruled out, Josh Okogie and Jae'Sean Tate are candidates for increased playing time. Eason has started three straight games, averaging 11.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.3 steals, 1.3 blocks and 1.0 assists in 25.3 minutes per game during that span.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Keeps up strong defensive play

    Eason finished Monday's 126-119 win over the Pacers with 13 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 29 minutes.

    Eason continues to supply reliable numbers in the defensive categories, and he should stick with the first unit as long as Alperen Sengun (calf) remains sidelined. Over his last five games (three starts), Eason has averaged 11.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 1.0 blocks in 21.9 minutes per game.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Starting vs. Lakers

    Eason will start Thursday's game against the Lakers, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

    Eason will make just his second start of the season Thursday. Josh Okogie will come off the bench.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Offers efficient scoring in return

    Eason (lower leg) tallied 16 points (6-8 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 16 minutes Sunday in the Rockets' 125-124 overtime loss to the Kings.

    Eason made his first appearance for the Rockets since Nov. 14, after he had initially been sidelined due to a right oblique strain before having his return further delayed when he experienced general soreness in his left lower leg during the ramp-up process. The fourth-year forward was able to avoid a major setback due to the latter issue and excelled in his return Sunday, with his 16-point effort fueled by some red-hot shooting from downtown. A career 36.8 percent shooter from long distance, Eason shouldn't be relied upon to make a regular impact in that area, but he's proven to be an excellent per-minute contributor in the rebounds, steals and blocks categories. Eason could see his playing time tick up slightly in future games, though he'll have a ceiling on his minutes upside while the likes of Kevin Durant, Jabari Smith and Alperen Sengun are all available in the Houston frontcourt.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Good to go Sunday

    Eason (leg) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Kings.

    Eason hasn't played since mid-November, so the Rockets may ease him back into the rotation Sunday with a modest workload. For the season, Eason has made 11 appearances with averages of 11.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.5 three-pointers.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Won't play Saturday

    Eason (lower leg) has been ruled out for Saturday's game in Denver.

    Eason hasn't played since mid-November, first due to an oblique strain and most recently due to general soreness in his left lower leg. The Rockets haven't termed the lower leg issue as a setback, so Eason could have a chance at playing in the second leg of a back-to-back set Sunday in Sacramento.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Won't play Thursday

    Eason is out for Thursday's game against the Pelicans due to a right oblique strain, per Will Guillory of The Athletic.

    Eason needs at least one more contest to recover from the injury, which has kept him out since the middle of November. Josh Okogie should continue to soak up meaningful minutes in the frontcourt for the Rockets on Thursday.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Listed as questionable for Thursday

    Eason is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans due to a right oblique strain.

    The injury has prevented Eason from playing since the middle of November, but the forward appears to be on the verge of returning. Eason is likely to carry a minutes restriction if he gains clearance for Thursday, but his eventual presence is still projected to eat into the minutes of Josh Okogie in the frontcourt.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Not playing Monday

    Eason (oblique) is out for Monday's game against the Nuggets, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.

    Head coach Ime Udoka clarified that Eason's absence from Monday's game isn't a setback in his injury but rather general soreness after a workout. The forward hasn't played in a month while dealing with an oblique injury, so his absence shouldn't have a lot of fantasy ramifications. His next chance to play will come against the Pelicans on Thursday.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Questionable for Monday

    Eason (oblique) is questionable for Monday's game in Denver.

    Eason hasn't played in a month, so if he is cleared for Monday's game, he'll likely have some minutes restrictions. Eason's return would result in fewer minutes for Jae'Sean Tate.

  • Rockets' Tari Eason: Eyeing Monday return

    Eason (oblique) could return as early as Monday against the Nuggets, Vanessa Richardson of Space City Home Network reports.

    Eason hasn't taken the court since Nov. 14 due to a right oblique strain, but he's seemingly nearing a return to play. Head coach Ime Udoka noted Saturday that the team is hopeful Eason can gain clearance to suit up for Monday's clash, though the training staff will need to see how sore he feels following Saturday's practice. More clarity on his status should come closer to Monday's tipoff.
