Rockets' Tari Eason: Available to play Saturday
Eason (lower leg) is available for Saturday's game against the Spurs, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Eason was tabbed as a game-time call for this matchup, but he's received the green light and will be available off the bench. The third-year forward has played 13 and 16 minutes off the bench in his first two appearances this season.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Iffy for Saturday
Eason is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Spurs due to left lower leg injury management.
Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth on his left lower leg. While the 23-year-old forward has played in both of Houston's games so far this season, the team could opt to play it cautiously on the second night of a back-to-back.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Underwhelming performance
Eason ended Wednesday's 110-105 loss to the Hornets with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 13 minutes.
Eason was quiet in the loss, a worrying sign for anyone who took a chance on him in drafts. On a roster laden with upside, Eason simply doesn't have a clear path to minutes. Despite a fantasy-friendly game, he is not someone who needs to be rostered in all spots.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Out for Monday
Eason (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason opener against the Jazz, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower left leg, though he has been an active participant during training camp thus far. The 23-year-old is likely only out for an extra day of rest, and he is expected to be available for Opening Night. With Eason out, the club will get an extended look at Cam Whitmore, Jae'Sean Tate and Nate Williams.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Works out ahead of training camp
Eason (lower back) worked out with several Rockets teammates before Houston's Media Day on Tuesday, Michael Shapiro of SI.com reports.
Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower leg, but as expected, he's back to full strength ahead of training camp. The 2022 No. 17 overall pick averaged 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.8 minutes per game last season. However, the Rockets also have Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore as ascending frontcourt options, limiting Eason's fantasy ceiling in Year 3.

Rockets' Tari Eason: On track for training camp
Rockets general manager Rafael Stone said Tuesday that Eason (lower leg) is on track to be available for training camp, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston.
Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower leg but is expected to make a full recovery by the time training camp rolls around in the fall. In 22 appearances last season, Eason averaged 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 steals in 21.8 minutes. The 22-year-old is a versatile prospect on both ends of the floor, but with other young options in the frontcourt such as Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore, Eason may struggle to win playing time.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Undergoes successful surgery
The Rockets announced Tuesday that Eason underwent successful surgery to treat a benign growth in his lower leg. He's expected to make a full recovery in approximately four months.
As expected, Eason will miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery, but he should be back to full strength this summer and will likely be available for training camp in the fall. The No. 17 overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft finishes his second season in the NBA with averages of 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.8 minutes per game, numbers that are nearly identical to his averages as a rookie. Eason is a promising young player, but the Rockets also have Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore as ascending frontcourt options, which puts a ceiling on Eason's fantasy value heading into 2024-25.

Rockets' Tari Eason: Out for season
Rockets coach Ime Udoka announced Saturday that Eason will undergo season-ending surgery on his left leg, according to Houston sideline reporter Vanessa Richardson.
Eason had a benign growth on his lower leg bone that flared up after a contact injury. Eason has a timetable of four months, so while he's out for the remainder of the season, he should be ready in advance of the 2024-25 season. He'll finish the campaign with averages of 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 steals.
