Tari Eason's mom makes plea to 'Lethal Shooter' amid son's recent slump

To say Tari Eason has been struggling from deep would be an understatement.

At one point in March, the Rockets forward had missed 23 consecutive three-point attempts and registered seven consecutive games without a make. When his third attempt of the night finally went down during the Rockets' blowout win over the Hawks on Friday, Eason lifted his hands to the sky and gave a kiss to the man up above, much to the delight of announcer Craig Ackerman.

"He made a three!" Ackerman exclaimed.

If Ackerman's joy was one thing, Eason's mother might have been the happiest person to see her son finally get one to go in.
