Eason enjoyed a solid season as a rookie in 2023-24, appearing in all 82 games during the regular season and averaging 9.3 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists across 21.6 minutes per contest. He was expected to hold a steady role off the bench in 2023-24, but he struggled with injuries and didn't play a single game after Jan. 1, ultimately being ruled out for the rest of the campaign in March. The Rockets are far more talented now than in 2022-23 when Eason held an important role in the rotation, and considering he had a reserve role at that time, he's widely expected to continue playing off the bench, though perhaps seeing even fewer minutes. The fact that he's still rehabbing from a lower leg injury complicates his upside even further, and overall, there seem to be too many question marks around the third-year forward to trust him in fantasy outside of the deeper formats. Eason might have a shot at being a late-round flier in formats with 14 or 16 teams, especially as an injury policy if you selected Alperen Sengun or Jabari Smith earlier in your draft.
