Tari Eason tallied 13 points (6-of-14 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, four steals, two blocks and one three-pointer in Thursday’s win over the Lakers.
In his third game back from an oblique injury that sidelined him for over a month, Eason made his second start of the season. While the three-pointers weren’t falling, with the Rockets’ forward shooting 1-of-5, he did a little bit of everything else. Eason’s six defensive contributions were a season-high, and it’s something that he’s capable of doing consistently. Even if this start was a one-time deal, now is a good time to add Eason if he’s available in your league.
