A few days into the NBA season and the pricing on DraftKings seems to be tightening up a little bit already. Unless injury news opens up some more cheap value options, we might have to take a leap of faith to roster some of the lower priced options that have potential but haven’t realized it yet on the young season.

LeBron James (SF/PF – LAL): $10,700 vs. HOU
LeBron will make his home debut for the Lakers on Saturday night in a game with a huge Vegas total of 235 points in a matchup with the Rockets. James Harden on the other side of the matchup is also a strong play but his salary is a little bit higher ($11,300) and he has a better collection of offensive options around him.

His 28 percent usage from the opener will definitely go up on Saturday.
