Tari Eason personifies the Houston Rockets' dogged approach to basketball as well as anyone. The organization must retain him beyond his rookie contract.
This should not be up for debate. It's not just Eason's relentless aggression on defense that defines Rockets basketball. This team is set on generating as many possessions as possible, and Eason is instrumental in that strategy. Between his offensive rebounding and defensive playmaking, few players generate as many extra possessions as Eason.
It's non-negotiable. Eason needs to be a Rocket for years to come.
What should his next deal look like?
