Player performance and review:
Kyrie Irving has been one of the top performers for the Boston Celtics this season. He is averaging just under 23 points per game this season, along with 5 rebounds and more than 6 assists a game.
His scoring numbers have taken a slight dip due to increased usage of his surrounding players, which has resulted in better numbers in the other areas.

Alternate pick: Damian Lillard (Portland Trail Blazers)
Guess the Lakers players!
