LeBron James, SF/PF, Los Angeles Lakers

DraftKings Price: $11,200

Yeah, you guessed it. Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James is numberFire's highest-projected DraftKings player of the night, edging out Giannis by 0.6 DraftKings points.

Though the Lakers seem to be in free-fall (they are 3-7 in their past 10), they are still only 4.5 games out of the last playoff spot in the Western Conference, and you know LeBron doesn't want to miss the playoffs for the first time since his second year in the league.

He'll be at his best, and your DraftKings lineups will stand to benefit by using him. He has five double-doubles in a row and has scored at least 56.5 DraftKings points in seven straight contests, which includes four games of 63.5 or more.

He's scored at least 57.0 DraftKings points in three straight games against the Los Angeles Clippers, tonight's opponent. Our models don't see that changing tonight as we have him projected for 58.9 DraftKings points and a return of 5.25 points per $1,000.
