Aldridge definitely did not do his reputation any good by having back to back below par years with the San Antonio Spurs. But this season, the 5-time All-Star finally seems to have found his rhythm. Aldridge has stepped up big time for the Spurs in the absence of their star forward Kawhi Leonard and has led them to a solid 19-8 start.

He has shown significant improvement on the offensive end with his production increasing from just 17.3 points per game last season to an impressive 22.7 points per game this time around. But most importantly he has found that lost confidence which he had in Portland to put the team on his back down the stretch and get the job done on both ends of the floor.
