Tari Eason Questionable for Rockets’ Game Against Heat on December 29th with Lower Leg Injury
Tari Eason of the Houston Rockets is dealing with a left lower leg injury. He is currently listed as questionable to play in the upcoming game against the Miami Heat on December 29th. This follows a series of missed games due to the same injury, which began affecting him earlier this month.
What It Means
Eason’s absence could impact the Rockets as they prepare for their next match. He has been averaging 11.2 points per game and grabbing 6.3 rebounds this season. His performance has placed him among the top five at his position in several games this year.
If Eason cannot play, Dillon Brooks and Cam Whitmore may see increased minutes. Brooks is currently leading in minutes per game at small forward, while Whitmore offers additional support off the bench. The team will need to adjust their strategy if Eason remains sidelined.
