LeBron James accounted for 17 points (7-of-13 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), six rebounds, five assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Saturday’s win over the Nuggets.
Offensively, James took a back seat to Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves on Saturday, as they combined to score 62 points. However, James provided solid value in his 40 minutes, with the five turnovers being the lone issue. The Lakers’ four-game Week 21 slate includes a midweek back-to-back, so LeBron may sit one out. If so, Rui Hachimura (six points, four rebounds) would have added value in deep leagues.
