3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 12/29/16
Kyle Lowry has a great matchup today playing up in pace against the Suns. Which other high-priced players should be on your fantasy radar?

LeBron James, SF, Cleveland Cavaliers

FanDuel Price: $10,300

LeBron James has played well this month and is averaging 52.3 FanDuel points per game over his last 10. That's been possible thanks to averages of 29.2 points, 8.3 rebounds and 7.2 assists in 37.9 minutes of play, while topping 55 FanDuel points on three different occasions.

He has a great matchup on Thursday against the Boston Celtics. While they play decent defense, that does not translate to shutting down fantasy production. Boston ranks 23rd in defensive and 28th in offensive rebound rate this year, while allowing top-10 fantasy production to opponents at both forward positions.

With LeBron's 7.9 rebounds per game being the second-most among all small forwards (with most of those coming on the defensive glass), Boston's rebounding struggles give him a big edge in fantasy. He also offers a solid floor from the huge minutes he has been playing recently.
