Kawhi Leonard, SF, Toronto Raptors

Price: $10,100

The Toronto Raptors have listed Kawhi Leonard as questionable after he missed each of their last two games, so make sure to double-check his status closer to tip-off, but if he plays he'll offer plenty of upside tonight.

Sitting out seems to have cut his salary slightly, as he's down $300 from the $10,400 price tag he held in his last start. That fall comes despite the fact that he has 50-plus FanDuel points in four of his last six games, averaging 52.2 per game in that stretch, which includes a season-high 64.3-fantasy-point performance.

He put up some serious offensive volume in that six-game stretch, too, with at least 18 field goal attempts in each game, averaging 21.2 per. He's attempted at least 20 in 7 of his last 11 games.

The Portland Trail Blazers have allowed top-five fantasy production to small forwards this year, and if Kawhi plays he should have no issue turning his volume into production in this spot.
