LeBron James, SF, Los Angeles Lakers

Price: $12,000

We get one more game that LeBron James will play with both Brandon Ingram and Rajon Rondo suspended, and so far that situation has been great for his fantasy value.

He has dropped 63.6 and 51.4 FanDuel points in those contests, which are his two highest marks of the season. That 51.4 came in only 28.1 minutes of action in a blowout win over Phoenix, in what was a massively efficient showing.

James has a 29.8% usage rate with Rondo and Ingram on the shelf, compared to a 27.5% mark in his first two games, and we can expect him to once again dominate the ball tonight against Denver.

The Nuggets have played solid defense and with a slow pace, but they are still allowing above-average fantasy production to the small forward position, and we project James for the day's second-highest fantasy score.
