LeBron James, SF, Cleveland Cavaliers

Price: $12,300

The Chicago Bulls' all-around ineptitude should mean big things for the King tonight.

LeBron James is playing 37.3 minutes per game, and he's turning that into some phenomenal fantasy production. He's second in the NBA with 55.4 FanDuel points per game, and that production has been very well-rounded, coming with a 30.9% usage rate and career-best marks in true shooting percentage (65.8%) and assist rate (45.4%) as well as the second-highest rebound rate (12.7%) of his career.

His 24 games with at least 50 FanDuel points are the most in the NBA -- as are his 19 games with at least 55 fantasy points and 11 games with at least 60.

The Bulls have allowed above-average fantasy production to opponents at all five positions this season, including top-10 numbers to small forwards. They're giving up top-five marks in both assists and rebounds per game while ranking only 20th in defensive rating, so Chicago doesn't have much hope of slowing down LeBron tonight.
