Rockets head coach Ime Udoka mentioned that the team might avoid playing Tari Eason and Steven Adams in both games of back-to-backs early in the season due to previous lower-body injuries.

While Adams’ limited role may not affect fantasy significantly, Eason holds potential, particularly in points-punt leagues, as he contends for a starting position alongside Jabari Smith Jr.
