Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James said he won't play on Wednesday against the Utah Jazz.
James will take off the second leg of the Lakers' back-to-back and begin his All-Star break early. The 39-year-old played 31 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Detroit Pistons and recorded 25 points, 1 rebound, 8 assists, and 3 three-pointers. Spencer Dinwiddie, D'Angelo Russell, Taurean Prince, and Rui Hachimura are all in line for more work on Wednesday night.
Dinwiddie is numberFire's third-best and Hachimura is our seventh-best point-per-dollar value on Wednesday's 13-game Main slate. Dinwiddie has a $5,400 salary and is projected for 33.0 FanDuel points, while Hachimura ($5,400) is projected for 30.1 FanDuel points over 35.5 minutes.
