Rookie Fit Preview: Houston Rockets – NBA Draft Digest

After a crowded 2022 Draft, it’s clear the Houston Rockets now have several key pieces of their rebuild already on their roster.

With Jabari Smith Jr., Tari Eason and TyTy Washington, its clear Houston added talent. But how will they fit in with the current squad?

The Rookie Class

Jabari Smith Jr. (Forward | No. 3 Overall)

A well-built sharpshooter with a knack for stingy defense. At the very least, Smith will project to be an elite 3-and-D prospect with unlimited upside should he hone a few more skills.

Tari Eason (Forward | No. 17 Overall)

Potentially the most raw prospect in the draft, Eason has some work to do refining his game, but could be one of the most talented players in the class.
