Top 4 Small Forwards

  1. LeBron James ($11,500) vs. Boston Celtics
  2. Paul George ($9,000) vs. Memphis Grizzlies
  3. Michael Beasley ($6,600) vs. Indiana Pacers
  4. Jayson Tatum ($5,400) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers

Rationale:

  • LeBron James has posted triple-doubles in consecutive games, averaging 29.5 points, 17 assists and 11 rebounds a game while shooting 57.1 percent from the field and 50 percent from 3-point range. The performances helped the Cleveland Cavaliers win two straight games after falling nine times in their previous 13 contests. The lofty assist totals from James has helped him increase his assist average to 8.9 per game, the highest mark of his illustrious career and the third-highest average in the league this year.
  • In the first game for the New York Knicks without All-Star forward Kristaps Porzingis, Michael Beasley emerged as the primary scoring option for the team. The 6’9″ forward scored a team-high 21 points on 7-of-13 shooting from the field, part of a 41.9 fantasy point effort in FanDuel NBA tournament play. As the Knicks continue to search for consistent offensive production, Beasley could be in line for several lofty scoring performances in FanDuel NBA leagues.
