Jahlil Okafor Records First Double-Double Of Season In Defeat
5 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans center Jahlil Okafor made his third consecutive start Saturday during his team’s loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder and notched his first double-double of the year by scoring 15 points and snagging 12 rebounds. He further packed the stat sheet by adding three assists and blocking two shots. After starring in spurts down the stretch last season for New Orleans, Okafor has continued to prove impressive from a fantasy perspective when given ample playing time. As Derrick Favors battles knee soreness, Okafor could present a solid stream option in traditional fantasy Monday against Brooklyn, so long as the starting center spot remains his.
