NBA GM survey: Tari Eason viewed as biggest steal in 2022 draft

0

With an All-NBA Summer League First Team performance this offseason and a sparkling preseason debut (21 points, 69.2% FG, 10 rebounds in 21 minutes), rookie forward Tari Eason has already made quite an impression on the Houston Rockets and the team’s fans.

It now appears that the secret is out.

In NBA.com’s annual GM survey, Eason finished tied for first on the question of biggest steal relative to his draft slot. Eason, drafted at No. 17 in the 2022 first round, came in tied with Detroit’s Jalen Duren, who was selected a few picks earlier at No. 13 overall.

Eason was the only member of the Rockets to finish first (or tied for first) in the GM survey. Other Houston players who received votes included Jabari Smith Jr. for 2022-23 Rookie of the Year; Smith for the best player among the rookie class in five years; and Jalen Green for most likely to have a breakout year in the upcoming season.

For the survey, NBA general managers responded to 50 different questions about the best teams, players, coaches, and offseason moves. Respondents were not permitted to vote for their own team or personnel. The complete survey results can be viewed here.
