PG 1 - De'Aaron Fox (Sacramento Kings):

The Sacramento Kings have been doing really well this season, a shock to most people. They are currently 9th in a very tough and competitive Western Conference and seem to be holding their own. They have a 15-13 record this season and of late have lost a bit of form, going 5-5 in their last 10 matches. Their most recent game was a hard fought, tough loss to the Golden State Warriors, 130-125. One player who seems to have stood out for the Kings has been De'Aaron Fox.

Fox has taken a leap this season, averaging a career high 18 points per game, along with a huge 7.6 assists and almost 4 rebounds per match too. He has become a much better defender as well, averaging almost 2 steals and blocks combined per game. He is taking more shots too and is making them at a better 47% efficiency from the field. He is shooting more 3s and that too is at a better efficiency of 41%. In the last game against the Warriors, Fox scored 25 points along with 9 assists and 6 rebounds. He also managed to get 2 steals and brought them close to winning the game. He is in with a shout for the Most Improved Player this season and with good reason too.

Alternate pick: Ben Simmons (Philadelphia 76ers)
