Top 4 Small Forwards

  1. LeBron James ($13,100) vs. Phoenix Suns
  2. Otto Porter Jr. ($7,900) vs. Denver Nuggets
  3. Nemanja Bjelica ($5,800) vs. New York Knicks
  4. Allen Crabbe ($5,000) vs. Toronto Raptors

Rationale:

  • LeBron James continues to find a way to add impressive statistics to his incredible resume. Over the past 20 games, James is averaging a triple-double, as he is logging 30.2 points, 10.4 rebounds and 10.3 assists per game. At the age of 33, James is averaging 9.1 assists per game, the highest mark of his 15-year career and for the second consecutive season, is leading the league in minutes per game.
  • The Minnesota Timberwolves have started Nemanja Bjelica at the small forward position in the absence of Jimmy Butler and have received plenty of statistical production. While Bjelica hasn’t been able to replace the All-Star caliber play of Butler, Bjelica has added 12.1 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. Bjelica has grabbed six or more rebounds in each of the past six games, providing a steady supply of fantasy points in FanDuel NBA leagues.
