9 – Paul Millsap – Atlanta Hawks
Stats: 19.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.6 blocks
Record: 3-0
With the departures of Jeff Teague and Al Horford, Paul Millsap has stepped into the spotlight as the face of the Atlanta Hawks – even though a bit of the pressure is off thanks to hometown hero Dwight Howard.
Nevertheless, while doing so, Millsap has led his team to a 3-0 start. Millsap is shooting 38 percent from beyond the arc, and is one of the best stretch forwards in the game.
As the new-look Hawks continue their climb, and they’ve looked really good through three games, Millsap’s numbers should follow suit.
