Jahlil Okafor Posts Another Dominating Double-Double
6 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans center Jahlil Okafor went for 25 points and 13 rebounds during Monday’s loss to the Indiana Pacers, his fifth double-double this season. With the majority of New Orleans’ traditional frontcourt players sidelined, Okafor has stepped into a role he hasn’t seen since his formative years with Philadelphia -- that of a starter and offensive weapon. Over the last eight games -- in which he has started all -- the big man is shooting 66.7 percent from the floor while averaging 18.9 points and 10.4 rebounds per contest. As long as Anthony Davis is not in the picture, Okafor is absolute must-own in all season-long formats.
