3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 3/23/18
As Giannis Antetokounmpo sits out Friday night, Jabari Parker could be a sneaky way to take advantage. Who else could make for a smart play at a low price point?

Jabari Parker, SF/PF, Milwaukee Bucks

DraftKings Salary: $5,400

With Giannis Antetokounmpo out tonight, most people will shift their focus to Khris Middleton and Eric Bledsoe, but don't forget about Jabari Parker, coming off of his first 30-minute game of the year. The Bucks need to get Parker going if they're compete in their first-round playoff matchup, so the Greek Freak's brief absence might actually be beneficial in the long run. Parker has been much more involved with Giannis off the court as his usage rate has climbed from 23.5% to 26.0% while his DraftKings points per minute have increased from 0.99 to 1.16 without Giannis.

Parker needs 27 DraftKings points to reach value at this price tag, which, by the math, is doable in just 23.3 minutes at a pace of 1.16 DraftKings points per minute. Any playing time he sees beyond that is an added bonus at this salary. In a great spot against the Chicago Bulls, Parker is worth a look in all formats.
