Eason may miss Wednesday's game due to an illness. It seems to be going around for Houston, as he isn't the only one on the team with an illness designation. We'll know more about his status closer to tip-off, and Cam Whitmore would be a candidate for more work if the veteran is unable to play.

Rockets coach Ime Udoka said Tari Eason will undergo season-ending surgery.
