LeBron James, SF, Los Angeles Lakers

Price: $12,400

With no over/under on the Pels/Warriors game yet, the Los Angeles Lakers' 120.5 implied total is the slate's highest, at the time of this writing. That would only be 3 points more than the 117.0 per game per game that Dallas is conceding (eighth-most in the NBA) and would actually be fewer than the 122.0 per game that the Lakers are scoring.

Still, 120-plus points are nothing to scoff at, as only one other team has an implied total above even 115 tonight.

We haven't seen LeBron James play quite the ridiculous workload he did last year, but he has still topped 36 minutes in 3 of his 7 games, and he's averaging 36.0 per. that playing time hasn't limited his fantasy value either, as the King has topped 50 FanDuel points in 5 straight games, with 3 games of 60-plus and an average of 59.2 per in that stretch. After leading the NBA with 56 games of 50-plus and 28 of 60-plus last season, he looks to once again have the best fantasy floor around.
