Tari Eason has been a member of the Houston Rockets for a little more than two weeks but fans already are filling up the Eason bandwagon.
The 17th pick in the draft has been turning heads at Summer League as the only player to turn in double-doubles in each of his first three games. The 6-foot-8 wing was particularly impressive in Monday night’s 97-84 win over the Spurs in which Eason filled up the stat sheet with 22 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks.
So, who is this lockdown defender who already is looking like a key piece of the Rockets rebuild?
