3 NBA DraftKings Value Plays to Target on 3/2/18

Jabari Parker, SF/PF, Milwaukee Bucks

DraftKings Salary: $4,700

We're finally starting to see the training wheels come off for Jabari Parker, which may provide a unique opportunity to buy-low on him tonight. We saw him log 27 minutes on the front end of a back-to-back and then play on the following night, which is very encouraging considering the way the Milwaukee Bucks have handled him this season. While Parker played only 18 minutes in the second game of that set, the fact that he was allowed to play in back-to-back games for the first time all year is exciting.

There's a very real chance that we're close to seeing Parker log around 30 minutes per night going forward, which would make him a screaming value at a price tag below $5,000. Parker has averaged 0.95 DraftKings points on the year and 1.01 since the All-Star Break, so he really doesn't need to see many minutes to hit the 23.5 DraftKings points required of him to him value (5 points per every $1,000 in salary).

With Tony Snell, Malcolm Brogdon, and Matthew Dellavedova injured and Sean Kilpatrick recently waived, Milwaukee is heading into this game with a somewhat shortened rotation. Parker should easily reach 25 minutes, which should more than enough given his efficiency. The matchup against an Indiana Pacers team that has struggled against bigs all year is just an added bonus.
