LeBron James, SF, Los Angeles Lakers

Price: $11,800

With Anthony Davis (elbow) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (head) both questionable tonight, LeBron James stands out in the top-priced tier of fantasy options for Monday.

Of course, saying that LeBron is just in play because of injuries to those guys doesn't do the King any justice. He has yet to post fewer than 45 FanDuel points in a game this season, and his last four games have each seen him top 50, averaging 60.0 per game in that stretch. His efficiency has really been something to behold in those games as well. He opened the season topping 37 minutes in each of his first three games, but has since yet to top even 35, averaging 32.3 per game over his last three.

LeBron is no stranger to hyper-efficient fantasy production, having averaged 1.47 FanDuel points per minute last season, and a matchup with a Minnesota Timberwolves squad that plays at a top-10 pace and ranks bottom-10 in defensive rating means he shouldn't have much trouble putting up big efficiency again.
