Eason (lower back) worked out with several Rockets teammates before Houston's Media Day on Tuesday, Michael Shapiro of SI.com reports. Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower leg, but as expected, he's back to full strength ahead of training camp. The 2022 No. 17 overall pick averaged 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.8 minutes per game last season. However, the Rockets also have Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore as ascending frontcourt options, limiting Eason's fantasy ceiling in Year 3.

Works out ahead of training camp
Eason (lower back) worked out with several Rockets teammates before Houston's Media Day on Tuesday, Michael Shapiro of SI.com reports. Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower leg, but as expected, he's back to full strength ahead of training camp. The 2022 No. 17 overall pick averaged 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.8 minutes per game last season. However, the Rockets also have Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore as ascending frontcourt options, limiting Eason's fantasy ceiling in Year 3.
On track for training camp
Rockets general manager Rafael Stone said Tuesday that Eason (lower leg) is on track to be available for training camp, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston. Eason underwent surgery in March to treat a benign growth in his lower leg but is expected to make a full recovery by the time training camp rolls around in the fall. In 22 appearances last season, Eason averaged 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 steals in 21.8 minutes. The 22-year-old is a versatile prospect on both ends of the floor, but with other young options in the frontcourt such as Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore, Eason may struggle to win playing time.
Undergoes successful surgery
The Rockets announced Tuesday that Eason underwent successful surgery to treat a benign growth in his lower leg, and he's expected to make a full recovery in approximately four months. As expected, Eason will miss the remainder of the regular season after undergoing surgery, but he should be back to full strength this summer and be available for training camp in the fall. The 2022 No. 17 overall pick finishes his second season in the NBA with averages of 9.8 points (46/36/64 shooting splits), 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.8 minutes per game, which are nearly identical to his numbers as a rookie. Eason is a promising young player, but the Rockets also have Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore as ascending frontcourt options, limiting Eason's fantasy value in 2024-25.
Out for season
Rockets coach Ime Udoka announced Saturday that Eason will undergo season-ending surgery on his left leg, according to Houston sideline reporter Vanessa Richardson. Eason had a benign growth on his lower leg bone that flared up after a contact injury. Eason has a timetable of four months, so while he's out for the remainder of the season, he should be ready in advance of the 2024-25 season. He'll finish the campaign with averages of 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 steals.
