Given the age difference coming into the league (20 vs 21), I was comparing Eason's rookie year to OG's second. Point being when there's more established talent at your position, you don't start.
At 21yo...
OG: 7.0pts, 2.9rbs, 0.7asts, 0.7stl, 0.3blks in 67 games (6 starting), 20.2mins, 45.3%fg, 33.2%3pt, 106.5defrtg
Eason: 9.3pts, 6.0rbs, 1.1asts, 1.2stls, 0.6blks in 82 games (5 starting), 21.6mins, 44.8%fg, 34.3%3pt, 113.4defrtg
Do you not see the validity of the comparison now? Only the defrtg is not a push or in Eason's advantage. That certainly can be explained by TOT being an amazing defensive team that year and HOU being horrific.
What's not to be forgotten here is that Eason is an excellent rebounder for a wing.
