3. Stephen Curry

I can’t leave off the reigning two-time NBA MVP. It wouldn’t be fair to.

Sure, Stephen Curry’s assist-to-turnover ratio might be slightly down, but he’s still putting points up at an illustrious pace. Steph is averaging 26.9 points and dishing out six assists a night, to go with a ridiculous 63.1 effective field goal percentage.

And, oh yeah, did I mention he broke the NBA record for most 3-pointers in a single game with 13? Yeah, Chef is doing alright. He’s probably not going to get the same attention or praise that he got the last two season, because of Kevin Durant, but he’s still REALLY good. Don’t get that twisted.
