Is there any stopping this guy? Should we just give him the trophy now? He is leading his Hawks towards the playoffs, he's owning the boards, swatting (almost) everything that comes near him and is finding time to drop in a solid 22ppg. But I bet he's really bad at tennis. Another stellar week 3, with a huge 23-20-5-4 haul against the Pacers.

OJ will end up suffering from bride's maid syndrome - never #1. His Kings had a mixed week but OJ put in his best stats so far to climb the ladder to #2. Still in the top 10 in scoring in the league and while his 3pt% dropped off a bit this past week, he is still one of the leagues sharp shooters.

His team picked up with a 2-2 week 3, but they are still stuck in the cellar. Yet Jason is relishing his starting role and nudges out Gasol to take #3 spot this week. He didn't quite match his double-double stats from week 1, but he shot a fantastic 75% and pulled down 11.3 boards this week - this sort of production should help claw his team to a few wins.

Little Gasol is still enjoying his start to the season, entrenched in the rookie top 4. Week 3 saw him slide back over to his starting C role and his production rise back up again to a double-double week. It seems he's a much better C than PF and the rest of the team will have to fit around that.

His team is leading the league - he's the starting SF - he's making a big contribution - what more could a rookie want? Randolph climbs above a few guards to take 5th spot overall and is looking comfortable there. His FG% has slid a little, but he is making other contributions with boards and assists to help his team to a great 11-1 start to the season.

The "other" Atlanta rookie has been a little lost in his teammate's shadow, but the NLL #2 pick put in his best week so far and deservedly jumps a few places to be knocking on the door of the rookie top 5 - can't keep a good rookie down. His 19.3 ppg, 5.8 apg, 3.3 rpg is his best production of the season - should maybe lay off the 3s a bit tho.

The NLL pocket rocket dropped off a little this week and his team struggled. Wetsbrook's scoring was down as he shot a poor 35%. Yet he is still getting his teammates involved ranking 6th in the league in assists and is getting his share of steals being the league's 3rd best thief.

Bayless is another little man on the slide and his team's strong start to the season is sliding with him. Jerryd's numbers have dropped markedly from week 1. He shot a poor 32% in week 3 and only averaged 3 assists. Orlando will be hoping he can jump the rookie wall in the new year.

Speights makes his first appearance in the rookie top 10 on the back of a strong week bolstering the Hornets front court. He lapped up the starting PF role contributing a solid 12.3 ppg at 76% and 9.5 rpg giving the Hornets the rebounding boost they needed, kick starting their season.

The Love-meister holds onto his spot in the top 10 despite a clear drop in weeks 2 and 3 from his start to the season. The Kings would probably like to see a bit more action on the offensive end from Love, but would have to be happy with his contributions on the boards and on D.
