Tari Eason and his designer clothing can rest easy ... because the ex he claims destroyed all his stuff isn't legally allowed to go anywhere near him -- including his NBA games.
The Houston Rockets star's request for a temporary restraining order against his former flame Marilyn Maritza Melo Rodriguez was granted by a judge Thursday ... and she's been barred from going near Tari, his home, his work, his vehicle, or NBA facilities where the baller is playing or practicing.
A hearing -- at which a judge will decide whether the TRO should be extended into a long-term restraining order -- has been set for August 20.
We broke the story ... Tari asked for a temporary restraining order in a court filing earlier this week -- alleging Marilyn, who he describes as someone he "used to date," struck him multiple times in the face with a closed fist and threatened to kill him.
He also claims she went to his Airbnb and dumped a ton of bleach on his designer clothes ... allegedly wrecking $92K worth of personal property.
Tari is entering his fifth NBA season with the Rockets ... and he's going to want a permanent restraining order, because the regular season doesn't start until October.
Still, Marilyn can't get near him at all for the next 3 weeks.
