PG 1 - Steph Curry (Golden State Warriors):

The Golden State Warriors are currently tied in a 3-way tussle for the top spot, with the Denver Nuggets and the Oklahoma City Thunder. They have a 22-11 record this season and have won 7 of their last 10 games, the latest being a hard-fought 120-116 win over the Dallas Mavericks.

They finally seem to be settling into a rhythm, and with DeMarcus Cousins scheduled to return soon, they will only look to carry on the momentum, and one of the players to look out for has to be Steph Curry.

Curry has been really good this season, whenever injuries have not forced him off the court. He is averaging a wonderful 29 points per game, along with 5 assists and 5 rebounds per game as well. He is shooting at an eye-popping 50% from the field, 48% from 3 and almost 95% from the free throw line, numbers which are quite frankly unheard of.

In the game last night against the Dallas Mavericks, Curry did not have his shooting boots on, only scoring 22 points, along with 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals as well. He shot only 32% from the field, which is a bad day at work for Curry. Expect him to bounce back hard tomorrow against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Alternate pick: Russell Westbrook (Oklahoma City Thunder)
