New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul has risen to the top of this week's player ratings. Paul is averaging 16.6 points, 9.9 assists, and 3 steals with a 49.7% FG% and 91% FT%.
The Breakdown
Paul was our second ranked player in the preseason and he is certainly doing exactly as we expected. Kevin Durant is on the rise, though, and he's on the verge of taking over the top spot. Barring injury, these two players should battle it out all season for the title of number one fantasy basketball player.
