Tari Eason Listed As Questionable With Illness On Wednesday

Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday night's matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. Eason is dealing with an illness but has yet to miss any game action this season. Fellow forward Dillon Brooks is also listed as questionable with an illness, potentially forcing a depth issue for the Rockets if both were to miss tonight's game. Eason has been solid but volatile for the Rockets off the bench, averaging 10.9 PPG and 4.6 RPG. His offensive volume has ranged from three FGA to 19 FGA, making him harder to rely on. In his two matchups against the Spurs this season he's scored six points twice and recorded two assists twice with the only variation happening with his rebounds, going from two to five. Fantasy managers looking for rebounding help may want to consider the 23-year-old but otherwise he may be a risky option off the bench. If Brooks is out and Eason is healthy and gets the start then he becomes much more viable. If both Brooks and Eason are out, consider Amen Thompson who is averaging 10.0 PPG and 5.9 RPG.

Tari Eason To Undergo Season-Ending Surgery

Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (leg) is set to undergo season-ending surgery on Monday, according to head coach Ime Udoka. He continued by saying a benign growth was found on Eason's left shinbone. It's believed to be a pain-tolerance issue, but the team has ultimately decided to have the second-year forward undergo surgery. Given recent history, Eason faces around a four-month recovery timetable. He's expected to be ready in time for next season. In the meantime, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore should continue seeing additional playing time.

Rockets, Tari Eason Seeking Additional Medical Opinions

Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (leg) is working with the team to get multiple other medical opinions on his leg injury according to head coach Ime Udoka. The 22-year-old hasn't played since January 1 and he's been continually listed on the injury report with "left lower leg injury management." At this point, it seems like the team's doctors aren't exactly sure what's going on with Eason's leg, and it still doesn't feel good enough to practice or take the floor in a game. Now that the season is already creeping into March, further medical opinions may extend Eason's absence into April or maybe even the rest of the season. That official word will come after the doctor visits, so fantasy managers will want to stay tuned. In the meantime, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore will likely keep receiving additional minutes.
