Rockets Signal Tari Eason, Amen Thompson Off Limits In Trade
The Houston Rockets have received trade interest on Tari Eason and Amen Thompson, but sources tell ESPN that they have been labeled off limits. The Rockets have a number of talented young players and a surplus of future first round picks to go with an assumed an interest in making a big trade. The Rockets are 8-4 and rank third in the NBA in defensive efficiency at 107.6 points allowed per 100 possessions. The Rockets could certainly reconsider their priorities if certain players become available but ESPN writes "Houston likes its hand. For now." Because Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun signed extensions before the start of the season, trading either player becomes incredibly difficult.
