DeAndre Jordan, C, Los Angeles Clippers

DraftKings Salary: $8,000

AD's MVP-type emergence isn't the only development since DeMarcus Cousins went down with injury a little over a month ago. New Orleans has really upped the pace, playing at what would be the league's fastest pace (103.2) since Boogie went down. They also have struggled mightily on the glass, posting a rebounding rate of 48.7%, which would rank 26th in the league. They've allowed the third-most rebounds to opposing centers during that span, which fits DeAndre Jordan's skill set perfectly.

Jordan has topped 15 boards in three straight games and has topped the 40 DraftKings points needed of him at this price tag in six of his past nine. His scoring has been inconsistent during that stretch, but with the Clippers projected to outscore their season average by 10 points, there should be plenty of scoring to go around. Jordan is firmly on double-double watch and could post a monster performance in this up-tempo game.
