3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/3/17
LeBron James is playing huge minutes and draws a plus matchup tonight against the Wizards. Which other high-priced NBA players should be on your radar in daily fantasy basketball?

Price: $10,600

LeBron James has seen huge playing time to start the season -- he's logged at least 37 minutes in six of his eight games and has only played fewer than that in games decided by at least 20 points. His 37.0 minutes per game are also good for fourth in the NBA.

When James gets big minutes like this, he's always going to sit as one of the strongest fantasy options, as he combines the big playing time with elite efficiency. Among players with at least 1,000 minutes played since the beginning of last season, James' 1.38 FanDuel points per minute is seventh in the NBA. His 49.5 FanDuel points per game to start the year are also good for fourth among players with at least two games played.

He brings that into a strong matchup today and playing up in pace against a Washington Wizards team that has allowed about league-average fantasy production to power forwards as well as the most fantasy points per game to opposing small forwards.
