PG 1 - Russell Westbrook (Oklahoma City Thunder):
The Oklahoma City Thunder are enjoying a very fast start to their 2018-19 season. They are currently 3rd in the Western Conference, with a 21-11 record. They are in great form, having won 4 of their last 5 matches. A huge part of their success has been the stellar play by Paul George but they cannot go without their star guard, Russell Westbrook.
Westbrook has been playing really well this season, averaging a triple double this season. In 24 matches, Westbrook is averaging above 20 points per game, along with just under 11 rebounds and over 10 assists per game as well. He is an amazing defender when on the floor and is averaging a huge 2.6 steals per game.
In the loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Westbrook had an efficient game before getting fouled out, scoring 23 points, along with 11 rebounds, 10 assists and 1 steal. His next opportunity to win is against the Houston Rockets and he will look to do his absolute best.
Alternate pick: Ben Simmons (Philadelphia 76ers)
