Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James (ankle) participated in Tuesday's shootaround and will be a game-time decision for tonight's season-opener against the Boston Celtics.
James tweaked his ankle during a preseason game on October 9 and while his status remains up in the air for tonight, things seem to be pointing in the right direction after he got in a light practice session on Monday. If he sits, Dwyane Wade and Kevin Love will be asked to do more on offense while J.R. Smith, Jae Crowder, and Jeff Green all likely see more minutes.
numberFire's models project James to score 52.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $10,400 tonight with 28.1 points, 8.0 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.8 blocks, and 2.2 3-pointers in 37.4 minutes.
