The San Antonio Spurs are doing okay for themselves. They have been stuttering this season, unable to unlock their offense consistently and are 15-15 in the Western Conference. They are 10th as of now, having won 5 out of their last 10 matches. A key cog in their team has been their newest addition, DeMar DeRozan, who has been playing extremely well this season.

DeRozan has been splendid for the Spurs, averaging more than 23 points per game, along with 6 assists and 6 rebounds too. The Spurs seem to win each time DeRozan is on point with his game, even though that was not the case against the Chicago Bulls, where the Spurs suffered a 2nd half breakdown, losing 98-93.

DeRozan scored 21 points, with 1 assist and 5 rebounds. He will look to bounce back with a big game against the Philadelphia 76ers tomorrow.

Alternate pick: Devin Booker (Phoenix Suns)
