Eason (lower leg) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans. Eason has missed three straight games due to left lower leg injury management, but this is the first time he's initially drawn a questionable tag since his first absence during that stretch. If he's sidelined again, Cam Whitmore, Reed Sheppard and Jae'Sean Tate would remain candidates for slightly increased roles off the bench.

Questionable for Thursday
Eason (lower leg) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans. Eason has missed three straight games due to left lower leg injury management, but this is the first time he's initially drawn a questionable tag since his first absence during that stretch. If he's sidelined again, Cam Whitmore, Reed Sheppard and Jae'Sean Tate would remain candidates for slightly increased roles off the bench.
Ruled out Monday
Eason (lower leg) will not play Monday against the Hornets. Eason will miss his third game in a row due to lower leg injury management. His next chance to play will be Thursday against the Pelicans.
Will remain out Sunday
Eason (lower leg) won't play Sunday against the Raptors. Eason is set to miss his second straight game due to left lower leg injury management. He could see the court next against the Hornets on Monday.
Out vs. Pelicans
Eason (lower leg) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against New Orleans. Eason is being shut down Thursday for injury management reasons. His next chance to suit up will arrive Sunday in Toronto.
Labeled questionable
Eason is questionable for Thursday's game against New Orleans due to left lower leg injury management, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports. The Rockets could give Eason the night off Thursday for injury management purposes. If that's the case, Cam Whitmore, Jeff Green and Jae'Sean Tate could see more minutes.
Grabs seven boards in return
Eason (concussion) tallied nine points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes Wednesday in the Rockets' 91-90 win over the Warriors. Eason had missed the Rockets' previous two games while in the NBA's concussion protocol, but he was cleared to play in advance of Wednesday's NBA Cup matchup. The Rockets ran a short rotation that didn't include either Steven Adams or Jock Landale, so Eason ended up picking up some playing time as a small-ball center when Alperen Sengun was off the court. Eason is likely to see more of his playing time as a backup forward in future games, but his minutes should continue to hold steady in the 20-to-25 range. He didn't contribute any defensive statistics Wednesday, but his season-long averages of 2.0 steals and 1.0 blocks have made him a roster-worthy option in category leagues of 12 teams or deeper.
Clears concussion protocol
Coach Ime Udoka said Tuesday that Eason cleared the concussion protocol, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports. Eason missed two straight games for the Rockets, but he's expected to have the green light to return against the Warriors on Wednesday. The third-year forward holds averages of 11.3 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.0 blocks and 2.1 steals through 22 regular-season contests.
Ruled out to face Clippers
Eason (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Clippers. Eason picked up a concussion in Tuesday's win over the Kings, where he recorded 16 points and 12 rebounds across 25 minutes off the bench, and as a result, he'll miss a second straight game. His next chance to suit up will come against the Warriors on Wednesday.
In concussion protocol
Eason (concussion) won't play in Thursday's game against the Warriors. Eason nabbed a double-double in Tuesday's victory, but he picked up a concussion during the contest. While he's sidelined, Jeff Green and Jae'Sean Tate could see more action. Eason's next chance to play will come Sunday against the Clippers.
