LeBron James, SF, Cleveland Cavaliers

FanDuel Price: $10,100

LeBron James has been on a tear recently, averaging 31.2 points, 8.6 rebounds and 8.0 assists -- good for 55.3 FanDuel points per game -- over his last five games.

LeBron is a little risky tonight because of the blowout potential as the Cleveland Cavaliers are likely going to dominate the Brooklyn Nets. But this matchup is good enough that even if LeBron doesn't play a full game, it will likely mean he has already fit a game's worth of production into three quarters to help the Cavaliers take such a big lead.

The Nets are pretty easily the best team to target in fantasy this season. They are playing at the league's fastest pace and rank 28th in defensive rating. Brooklyn is also in the bottom 10 in both offensive and defensive rebound rate while turning the ball over at the league's third-highest rate. So it's no surprise the Nets have allowed top-three fantasy production to opponents at every single position.
