High Salary SF

LeBron James-Cleveland Cavaliers (10,500): LeBron only had to play 28 minutes in Game 1 but still managed a solid 41.5 fantasy points on 24 points, six rebounds, four assists, and two steals. He had a huge game in Game 2 putting up a triple-double in 34 minutes with 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists for a postseason-high 62.75 fantasy points. James will look to bring it again tonight, and since the Cavs are on the road he may have to do more of the work. In both the Cavs first two series, James numbers improved when the team hit the road for games three and four, so look for a big number from LeBron again tonight.∗∗∗∗

Kevin Durant-Oklahoma City Thunder (10,300): Durant’s scoring was up in Game 2, but he didn’t produce hardly any non-scoring stats and also had eight turnovers. He was limited to just 37 fantasy points despite his 29 points after totaling 50.5 fantasy points in Game 1 while scoring 26 points. Durant played 11 fewer minutes in Game 2 which was a result of the game getting away from OKC late, but since he’ll be back at home in OKC for Game 3 on Sunday, I think he’ll have a monster game in a matchup he usually thrives in against the Warriors. ∗∗∗∗
