Discussed on Cash That Pos
The Rockets face off against the Lakers on Christmas for the night game and I’ll be targeting Tari Eason.
Eason is now in his third game back since his return from injury. He’s seen his minutes climb a bit from 16 to 18 and he’s averaging 22.4 on the season. Part of why I think we only saw 18 minutes was due to the Rockets getting their doors blown off by the Clippers.
This line is more or less what it was against LAC which is a departure from the typical line he has. Prior to injury, he was looking at about 22 minutes per game and a PR line set at 15.5. I think because he’s been ramped up a bit it’s not fully capturing his ceiling in a good matchup.
The Lakers are poor against these peripheral scorers. They tend to toss Luka or LeBron on them who sag off and give up easier shots or offensive rebounds. He primarily is a spot up shooter and that’s a weak spot for LA. Over the past few seasons, Tari has played the Lakers four times, going over this line in 3/4.
Tari has been solid this season and averages 11.5 points and 5 rebounds per game. I’ll rock with him on Christmas.
