The New Orleans Hornets are another squad decimated by injuries recently. Anthony Davis, Nikola Mirotic, Julius Randle, Elfrid Payton, and E'Twaun Moore have all been ruled out for Wednesday’s game, leaving plenty of minutes and scoring opportunities open for Frank Jackson.

Over his last five games, Jackson has seen his minutes rise to 21.5 per game, including earning a spot in the starting lineup last night in place of Payton. In those five games, he has averaged 9.6 points per game while dropping at least 10 points in his previous three games. The rookie is averaging 12.7 shots over the last three games while posting a 24.4% usage rate. Jackson finished with at least 20 FanDuel points twice for an average of 21.9 per game. That would bring 6.1 FanDuel points per $1,000 salary at his cost on Wednesday.

With a starting nod expected in what was projected as the second-highest scoring game of the night, it will be hard to pass up Jackson on Wednesday’s eight-game slate.
