3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 3/27/18
DeAndre Jordan, C, Los Angeles Clippers
DraftKings Salary: $8,000
After opening March with an 11-game stretch that ended with a 50-burger against his opponent tonight and saw him average 45.3 DraftKings points, DeAndre Jordan has posted back to back duds. Hopefully that keeps his ownership down tonight, as he gets a terrific spot against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Milwaukee has given up the second-most DraftKings points per game to opposing centers this season, thanks in large part to their 28th-ranked rebounding rate. They simply have nobody physical enough to keep Jordan off the glass, which was apparent the last time they faced. Jordan went for 25 points and 22 rebounds in that one, and he is a near-lock for another double-double tonight.
To top it all off, his Los Angeles Clippers have potentially the strongest game script on the slate, as they are three-point favorites in the game with the second-highest over/under. Their implied team total is nearly five points above their season average and is the highest among games that don't carry significant blowout risk. All things considered, Jordan is a strong play in all formats.
