Tari Eason hilariously grabs a seat with the fans during a lull in the game
There were a few problems during the game in between Houston Rockets and the Phoenix Suns on Monday, and Tara Eason he really took it sitting down.
The game clock went down in the first minute of the second quarter. While it was being repaired, Eason, instead of returning to the bench, sat in the yard with fans at the Toyota Center and talked to two ladies.
What were they talking about?
A. Dillon Brooks’ hair
B. The Kevin Durant Report
C. Venezuela
D. The final season of Stranger Things
The two women certainly got their money’s worth.
Eason has seen his role grow in the past few weeks, as he was inserted into the starting lineup. The 24-year-old forward is in the final year of his rookie deal, and putting up big numbers will only bode well for him as he looks for a bigger payday.
The Rockets should be inclined to keep him. He has been a key piece in the team’s resurgence and the perfect complement to Sengun, Durant and Jabari Smith Jr. in the frontcourt.
Eason, drafted 17th overall by Houston in 2022, also endeared himself to fans with his hard-nosed play and energetic personality.
With Sengun missing at least two weeks with an ankle injury, Eason will get more opportunities to increase his production and keep his teammate’s seat warm.
As of this writing, it was a tight affair between the Rockets and Suns in the third quarter. Eason has 12 points and five rebounds.
