LeBron James, SF, Los Angeles Lakers

Price: $12,400

If the blowout risk scares you off Giannis (the Milwaukee Bucks are favored by 12.5), LeBron James is another terrific play in that price-range.

Since returning from injury on January 31, LeBron has played in 11 games. If we remove the two contests decided by more than 20 points (tonight's game has a 4.5-point spread, so there's not much blowout risk), James has averaged a massive 39.6 minutes per game, playing no fewer than 37.3 in any game while topping 40 in four of the nine contests.

His lowest fantasy score in those games was 53.3 FanDuel points (in his first game back), and he's averaging 60.9 FanDuel points per game in that stretch.

On top of that, the matchup is appealing, too. The Los Angeles Clippers rank below average in both defensive rating and rebound rate this season while playing at a top-10 pace.
