DeAndre Jordan got the start over Jarrett Allen against the Lakers on Thursday.

Jordan wound up playing 25 minutes to Allen's 23 in what is likely to be an even timeshare regardless of who starts. Jordan finished the game with five points, seven boards, three dimes, three blocks and a steal. Allen finished with four points, seven boards, four blocks and a steal. They both will have value, but the timeshare caps both men's upside.

Danny Green
SG, Los Angeles Lakers

Danny Green came up big for the Lakers and stuffed the stat sheet on Wednesday with 11 points on 3-of-8 shooting from deep, four rebounds, one assist, two steals and three blocks.

Green has lived up to his 'IcyHot' nickname in these playoffs, but tonight he gave the Lakers exactly the kind of minutes they signed him for. He left the game with the second highest plus-minus on the team with +21. Green is a smart defender but he can only stay on the court if he's able to hit his threes and tonight they were dropping. If he keeps up this kind of performance he'll be on his way to back-to-back NBA championships.

Anthony Davis
PF-C, Los Angeles Lakers

Anthony Davis dropped 34 points on 11-of-21 from the field and a perfect 10-of-10 from the line in the Lakers' 116-98 win in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Davis led his team in scoring, grabbed nine rebounds, threw out five assists and blocked three shots as well. After years of losing, he is withing three games of his first NBA championship. As expected he made life difficult for Bam Adebayo early, putting the Heat's star in foul trouble by the end of the first quarter. Andre Igoudala then took up the challenge of guarding AD in the second half but failed to slow him down. Davis has solidified himself as the number one offensive option for the Lakers in these playoffs. If he continues to have games like these and the Lakers win the championship, Davis may end up taking home two trophies.

LeBron James
SF, Los Angeles Lakers

LeBron James posted 25 points (9-of-17 FG, 5-of-6 FT), 13 rebounds, nine assists, a steal and two threes in his 50th NBA Finals game as the Lakers took a 1-0 lead over the Heat on Wednesday,

James also took on the role of guarding Jimmy Butler immediately out of the gate. He didn't need to carry a large load on offense as many of the Lakers' role players were hitting their shots tonight. Aside from Anthony Davis, three of LeBron's other teammates scored in double digits. With the Heat suffering injuries to several key players and his teammates playing well, LeBron may very well be able to coast to his fourth ring.

Rajon Rondo
PG, Los Angeles Lakers

Rajon Rondo (eye) checked back into the game in the fourth quarter on Wednesday after getting hit in the eye.

Rondo looked to be in some discomfort after getting hit in the eye but it was clearly nothing serious. He returned to the court to help try and close out Game 1.

Bam Adebayo
C, Miami Heat

Bam Adebayo (left shoulder) was diagnosed with a shoulder strain and ruled out for the rest of Game 1 on Wednesday.

Relatively good news for Adebayo and his team. With Goran Dragic potentially set to miss the rest of the series, the Heat would be skeletal without Bam as well. Hopefully he is ready to go for Game 2 on Friday.
