Rockets streaking again as Tari Eason’s surge offsets Jalen Green’s slump

Description
For a second time in under two months, the Rockets (12-9) have won at least four straight games, and they’re currently on pace to go 47-35 for the 2023-24 season as a whole. This time, Houston is doing it even amid a sluggish week by third-year prospects Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun. So, how are the Rockets getting it done? Hosted by Ben DuBose and Paulo Alves, Friday’s episode (sponsored by Karbach Brewing) breaks it all down. Topics include a continued surge by Tari Eason and Jabari Smith Jr.; steady and perhaps undervalued play by Fred VanVleet; potential reasons for Green and Sengun’s underperformance; and Ime Udoka’s creative usage of what’s becoming a fairly deep rotation.
