Game 2 takes place for both the Rockets/Warriors and Celtics/Bucks on Tuesday night. With no significant injuries to report and both games featuring a projected combined score of 220 points, things are going to be challenging across the board.

FanDuel DFS Guards
James Harden - SG, @ GSW ($11,800)
After a rough shooting performance that saw Harden go 9-for-28 from the field in addition to some questionable officiating, Harden was still able to finish with 35 points in the 104-100 loss to the Warriors on Sunday. He will continue to play heavy minutes in Game 2 while being the focal point of the Houston offensive attack (as usual).
Andre Iguodala - SG, vs. HOU ($5,700)
Iguodala got the start in the series opener, ending the night with 14 points and four boards throughout 34 minutes of play. Coach Kerr indicated that he will likely retain the same role for Game 2, making him a practical option for those looking to save a little cash.
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Kevin Durant - SF, vs. HOU ($11,400)
Despite being matched up against the defensively-sound P.J. Tucker in Game 1, Durant was still impressive, scoring 35 points on 11-for-25 shooting from the field and 12-for-15 from the charity stripe. He has held his own against Houston all season with the Rockets lacking the size to stop him in any capacity,
Gordon Hayward - SF, @ MIL ($5,900)
Hayward is averaging 16.4 points and six boards throughout the last 10 outings. Though he is a ways away from what he used to be before the horrific ankle injury that forced him to miss virtually all of last season, he has progressively improved from a production and consistency standpoint. He will likely come off of the bench in Game 2 but will see some significant minutes nonetheless.
FanDuel DFS Centers
Al Horford - C, @ MIL ($7,000)
Horford was the star of Game 1, accumulating 49.7 fantasy points by way of 20 points, 11 boards, and three assists. He is also averaging nearly 20 points per game while also averaging 11 boards against the Bucks this season. Make sure he is in your lineup.
