That was the Spurs, I like what I saw of Tari, as a matter of fact it couldn’t be a better debut; but we need to see more before we get carried away give him the keys to the franchise. I am a believer so far.
He literally has the same height, weight, and wingspan as Ariza, but he does look stronger. Doubt he can guard a traditional big center, but given the dominance of small ball, yea, he can guard some of today 5's.
Tari Eason is "Mr Consistency". He has played the exact same way in every game with a Rockets jersey on.

I like Keegan Murray....but him being on this list instead of the person drafted immediately before him suggests he's better than the player drafted immediately before him.
I agree considering he's looked like warm dumpster juice so far. Never understood the hype. No film to pour over and everything being based on projecting from his measurables. Looks like a nice defender so far though so there is that to build on.
He has not looked good at all bro. Flashes on defense, but all that good shooter and hyper athletic difference maker stuff on offense has yet to materialize. I know he hasnt played alot and Im reeling myself in, but I have watched his game film so far and its really lackluster he has a LONG way to go. He's nowhere near the offensive force Jalen Green was at similar stages of their career but it looks like he is a better defender and its a great place to start.
if he doesn't pan out it's seriously one of the biggest fleece jobs of all time. imagine just sitting out for an entire year and getting paid millions for that decision.
It's no stretch to think he might be a better player than Smith, I don't see why that should bother anybody he could be the best player to come out of this draft, and he is much better all around offensively than Smith at this point. I think you are underselling Keegan Murray.
