Rank	Prev	Player	Reason
1	1	Michael Carter-Williams, Philadelphia 76ers	Despite not playing the last 3 games, MCW's number still have yet to be challenged. He still leads all rookies in points (17.7), rebounds (5.8), assists (7.3) and steals (3.1). He also has the highest PER at 20.1.
2	2	Victor Oladipo, Orlando Magic	Oladipo seems to have slowed down since his triple double, as in the last 3 games he has averaged only 9.3 points (below his season average of 13.4) and 1.7 assists (below his average of 3.5).
3	3	Trey Burke, Utah Jazz	Burke is headed the opposite direction. In the last 3 games, he has averaged 15 points (he averages 12.9 on the season), 7 assists (up from 4.2), 6 rebounds (up from 3.8) and 1.3 steals (up from 0.8). He was 3 assists way from his first career triple double on Saturday.
4	4	Ben McLemore, Sacramento Kings	The one consistent about McLemore is his inconsistency. This week he scored a career high 20 points against the Lakers, and was able to follow it up with 15 against Utah. He then went on to score 3 and 4 in the next two games. His averages currently sit at 9.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists.
5	n/a	Tim Hardaway Jr., New York Knicks	Hardaway makes his first appearance on the list, averaging 8.1 points on 46.5% shooting and 41.8% from downtown. The downside is that Hardaway doesn't seem do to much besides score, as he is only averaging 1.0 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.2 blocks.
