Rockets' Tari Eason: Playing Sunday
Eason (lower leg) is not on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Nuggets.
The Rockets rested their regular rotation players in the last two contests, but that won't be the case Sunday because this is the final chance the Rockets will have to log competitive minutes until the playoffs start April 19. As such, Eason should handle his regular workload in the frontcourt, though it's uncertain if he'll start or come off the bench. Eason is averaging 13.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game while starting in 12 of his 20 appearances since the All-Star break.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Won't play Friday
Eason is out for Friday's game versus the Lakers due to left lower leg injury management.
Eason, along with many of Houston's regulars, has been ruled out for Friday's contest due to the team already being locked into the second seed in the Western Conference. In his absence, Cam Whitmore, Nate Williams and Jeff Green are candidates to receive increased playing time. Eason's next chance to suit up is Sunday's regular-season finale against Denver.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Starting Wednesday
Eason is part of the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Dillon Brooks (rest) and Jabari Smith (groin) won't play Wednesday, allowing Eason to join the starting five for the 16th time this season. The 23-year-old forward is averaging 14.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.3 blocks per game as a starter in 2024-25.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Moving back to bench
Eason is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Thunder, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Head coach Ime Udoka decided to tweak the starting lineup in order to match the Thunder's frontcourt of Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren, meaning Steven Adams will start alongside Alperen Sengun. As a result, Eason will be available off the bench. Eason should still see a heavy dose of minutes despite the second-unit role, though.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Struggles in reserve role
Eason posted five points (2-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 18 minutes during Friday's 125-111 win over the Thunder.
Steven Adams supplanted Eason in the starting lineup Friday, which translated into a significant decrease in the latter's productivity. Eason has averaged 10.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.3 blocks in 22.2 minutes over his last seven games off the bench. Through his last nine outings as a starter, however, the 2022 first-rounder has averaged 16.1 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.1 blocks in 29.6 minutes.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Strong showing in Wednesday's start
Eason accumulated 15 points (7-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 143-105 win over the Jazz.
Bouncing back into the starting five, Eason stuffed the stat sheet and produced multiple blocks and steals in the same game for the first time since Feb. 6. The third-year forward seems likely to start again Friday against the Thunder, with Dillon Brooks facing an automatic one-game suspension after picking up his 16th technical foul of the season Wednesday. Whether deployed on the first or second unit, Eason has scored in double digits in 12 of 15 appearances (nine start) since the beginning of March, averaging 14.3 points, 7.1 boards, 1.9 assists, 1.4 threes, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks in that time while shooting 52.4 percent from the floor.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Stepping into first unit
Eason is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.
Eason will slide into the starting lineup in place of the injured Fred VanVleet (ankle). In 14 starts this season, Eason has averaged 14.9 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.2 blocks across 30.4 minutes.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Available for Monday
Eason (rest) is available for Monday's game against the Lakers, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Eason missed the front end of the team's back-to-back set Sunday due to rest purposes, but he will be available for Monday. Over his last five appearances, Eason holds averages of 10.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.6 steals in 25.8 minutes per contest.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Won't play Sunday
Eason (rest) will not play Sunday against the Suns.
Sunday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so Eason's fantasy managers can expect him back Monday against the Lakers. With Eason sidelined, Jae'Sean Tate could potentially step into a larger role for Houston.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Coming off bench Thursday
Eason is not in the Rockets' starting lineup against the Jazz on Thursday, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Eason was added to the Rockets' starting lineup in Tuesday's win over the Hawks due to the late scratch of Amen Thompson (ankle), and the former finished with 10 points (3-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 14 rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes. With Thompson back in action Thursday, Eason will retreat to his regular reserve role.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Late addition to starting lineup
Eason is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Hawks, Kelly Iko of The Athletic reports.
Amen Thompson (ankle) was a late scratch against Atlanta, so Eason will replace him in the starting lineup. Eason has averaged 16.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.1 blocks in 30.9 minutes across his previous 10 starting appearances.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Sees just 15 minutes
Eason finished Sunday's 116-111 loss to the Nuggets with four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 15 minutes.
Eason's workload was disappointing from a fantasy perspective. The Rockets used an eight-man rotation Sunday, with Jabari Smith logging 17 minutes and Steven Adams getting 23 minutes off the bench. This will likely end up being an outlier in what's been a strong season for Eason -- on a per-game basis, Eason has produced fifth-round value in nine-category formats.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Returning to bench role
Eason is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Heat, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
The Rockets will welcome Amen Thompson back in the starting lineup with no restrictions for this contest, so Eason will return to the bench. Eason averaged 17.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.1 blocks per game in his previous seven starts, and he's expected to see decent minutes off the bench.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Tallies five swipes in win
Eason posted 16 points (7-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and five steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 116-108 victory over the Magic.
Eason made his seventh straight Wednesday and is averaging 17.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.1 blocks in 30.9 minutes over that span. Only Hawks guard Dyson Daniels (3.0) averages more than Eason's 1.9 steals per contest this season.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Starting against 76ers
Eason is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the 76ers, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Eason will get the nod in the first unit in favor of Jabari Smith against an undermanned 76ers frontcourt. Over 11 games as a starter, Eason has averaged 14.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.4 blocks in 30.0 minutes.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Available for Monday
Eason (lower leg) is off the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the 76ers.
Eason missed Saturday's game against the Bulls as he continues to nurse a left lower-leg issue, but he will be available Monday. Eason has started the last five games he has appeared in, averaging 16.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.2 blocks in 29.0 minutes per contest over that stretch.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Won't play against Chicago
Eason is out for Saturday's game versus the Bulls due to left lower leg injury management.
Eason will miss the second leg of Saturday's back-to-back after starting in Houston's previous five outings. Jabari Smith, Cam Whitmore and Jae'Sean Tate are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Eason's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Philadelphia.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Season-high 30 points in easy win
Eason ended with 30 points (11-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 31 minutes during Friday's 133-96 victory over the Mavericks.
On top of filling the box score, Eason set a new season-high scoring output Friday to lead the Rockets. Eason has averaged 15.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 steals, 1.0 blocks and 1.7 three-pointers in 28.1 minutes through his last nine games. Although the 2022 first-rounder has regularly sat out one leg of Houston's back-to-back sets during the second half of the season, Eason should remain a strong source of defensive stats when available.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Double-doubles in win
Eason ended Wednesday's 111-104 victory over the Suns with 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 26 minutes.
Eason recorded his fifth double-double of the season despite a modest workload of 26 minutes. The Rockets have a back-to-back set coming up Friday against Dallas and Saturday against Chicago, so with how cautious the Rockets have been with him all season, a maintenance day could be on the table.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Hits for 20 in Thursday's start
Eason had 20 points (7-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists, one block and five steals over 31 minutes during Thursday's 109-97 win over the Pelicans.
Shifting back into the starting lineup for the first time since Feb. 25, Eason delivered at least 20 points for the first time since Feb. 12 while setting a new season high in made three-pointers. The third-year forward also recorded at least five steals in a game for the fourth time this season. Eason still hasn't been cleared to play in back-to-back games as he deals with a lower-leg issue, but he's been productive when he's been in the lineup over the last month. He's scored at least 12 points in six straight appearances, averaging 16.5 points, 6.3 boards, 2.7 assists, 2.3 threes, 2.0 steals and 0.7 blocks in 28.8 minutes a contest while shooting 54.1 percent from the floor and 48.3 percent (14-for-29) from beyond the arc.
