LeBron James, SF/PF, Cleveland Cavaliers

DraftKings Salary: $11,700

LeBron James just continues to impress as we get closer to the playoffs, registering three straight 70-burgers and a 64.3-DraftKings-point average over his past 10 games. His price still has a long way to go to reflect the type of numbers he is putting up, as James only needs 58.5 DraftKings points to pay off (5 points per $1,000 in salar) at this price tag. It is apparent just how great a value is when you compare his pricing to FanDuel, where he comes in with a whopping $13,100 salary.

The matchup against a Milwaukee Bucks team with a lot of length and a terrific individual defender (Giannis Antetokounmpo) to stick on LeBron isn't ideal, but given the way James has played lately, he is still easily the top stud to pay all the way up for on this slate. He should benefit from an advantageous game script, as well, as this game has the highest over/under (223 points) on the slate, and the Cleveland Cavaliers are 2.5-point favorites. Continue to lock James into your cash game lineups until DraftKings raises his price tag.
