3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 3/21/19

Blake Griffin, PF/C, Detroit Pistons

DraftKings Price: $7,800

The Pistons rested starting power forward Blake Griffin against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night, and they paid a price for it. If they thought the win was going to be easy, they should have realized the Cavs have been playing better than their overall record indicates (they're 7-7 since the All-Star break). The Cavs went on to win, but perhaps the rest for Griffin was a win nonetheless.

Griffin has clearly not been the same player this month that he has been the rest of the season. After previously averaging at least 42.3 DraftKings points per month, Griffin has averaged just 34.6 in March. So perhaps the rest day will have helped to reboot him, so to speak.

He should also benefit from a plus fantasy matchup tonight as the Pistons take on the Phoenix Suns, a team Griffin has thrived against in the past. He's scored more than 40.0 DraftKings points in nine of his past 11 games against Phoenix, including 57.25 the last time he played them in Arizona, where the game will be held tonight.

We have him bouncing back from his recent doldrums this evening, projecting him for 41.2 DraftKings points.
