Josh Jackson, PF, Phoenix Suns

FanDuel Price: $5,400
Projected FanDuel Points: 30.8
Projected FanDuel Value: 5.71

The Phoenix Suns will be without Kelly Oubre for a second straight game tonight when they host the Detroit Pistons. With T.J. Warren still out, that means that Josh Jackson stands to be a big beneficiary this evening.

Jackson did exactly that without Oubre in the Suns' last game, posting 18 points, 7 boards, 2 assists, and a steal in 31 minutes. Jackson was a household name in DFS in early February, scoring at least 31 FanDuel points five games in a row. He then struggled through late February and early March, so scoring 36.9 and 28.4 FanDuel points over his past two games has been a welcome sight.

He struggled against the Pistons in late November this season, but showed his potential against a similar Pistons team last year when he scored 36.9 and 31.2 FanDuel points. Our models like that more effective Jackson to show up tonight, projecting him for 30.8 FanDuel points and providing the third-best return on the entire slate.
