potential 3rd year breakout
I laugh because every single time everyone talks about anyone else but him when talking about Houston young core.
And he's the best young guy on the Rockets. Yes, better than Sengun.
They messed up getting Dillon, they clearly are playing the politics right now. Contract and veteran status for Brooks, draft position for Smith. He's miles better than both.
This is a guy that if ever gets 30+ minutes a game, you'd have two daily threads about him on the GB. That good and impactful.
People forget but he put up 14/8/2.6 steals in 25 mpg in his last 10 games last year.
Had an injury and was out for the season since December. So really, should've been a 2nd year breakout. Unfortunate injury cost him a year of development.
I strongly am of the opinion he would've won himself the starting job this year if he didn't have the injury last year. Whoever was he replacing I don't know, but his minutes were already jumping off.
Have always been a big fan of Eason. He impacts games a lot like Caruso but also misses lots of games due to his intensity of play.
I’m hoping he gets moved to a team that starts him and plays him a ton. He has AS potential if he gets burn and stays healthy.
Well, he did play 82 games as a rookie. Problem I think it was that he came back too soon last year.
He broke his foot in the preseason and 3 weeks later he was already on the floor again. I don't think it healed properly, and he was dealing with soreness by December which led to a season ending surgery.
