Jabari Smith Jr. collects 18 rebounds in win over the Thunder

Fantasy Impact:

Smith collected 18.0 rebounds in the Rockets' win over the Thunder, showcasing his value as a multi-categorical contributor. Although his scoring performance left much to be desired, he demonstrated encouraging upside through his rebound production. Smith has seen growth in his production across several performance categories this season and has shown promising upside. He has a solid all-around game but has yet to achieve the level of consistency to showcase his versatility from game to game. As of now, he warrants must-roster consideration in most season-long leagues. However, if he manages to put it all together and produce a comprehensive game on the floor night in and night out, he could breach must-start consideration by the season's conclusion. Smith's price point is a bit up there and could limit his appeal in daily formats; however, he could warrant some consideration in plus matchups where his odds of demonstrating his promising upside are higher. He has a usage rate of 17.5 percent, a plus-minus of -0.3, and averages 30.3 minutes, 12.9 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.8 blocks per game while shooting 50.5 percent from the floor and 36.6 percent from beyond the arc.
