Tari Eason - Optimism for Wednesday Coach Will Wade believes Eason (back) has a good chance to play Wednesday against Auburn, Sheldon Mickles of the Baton Rouge Advocate reports. Impact Eason has served as the top reserve for the undefeated Tigers this season, but he was forced to sit out a Dec. 22 contest against Lipscomb due to reasons that were never reported at the time. Wade disclosed Monday that Eason was suffering from back spasms, but he had recently been able to return to practice. In what capacity remains unclear, but there seems to be optimism the 16.3 ppg scorer will be ready for the all-important SEC matchup.
