Jason Smith enters Wizards' starting lineup on Wednesday
Washington Wizards forward/center Jason Smith will start on Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns.Jason Smith will move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Suns, with Otto Porter (illness) unavailable.
With Otto Porter (illness) out, Kelly Oubre will slide over to the Wizards' small forward spot while Smith draws the start at the four. In three starts last season, the veteran big man averaged 10.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.7 3-pointers, 1.0 steals, and 2.0 blocks in 29.3 minutes per game, but Markieff Morris' (hernia) expected return on Friday prevents Smith from carrying any long-term value.
numberFire's models project Smith to turn in 10.6 points, 6.7 rebounds, 0.9 assists, and 1.5 blocks in 27.1 minutes on Wednesday, which would yield 23.9 FanDuel points at a cost of only $3,100, making him an attractive DFS option.
