Rajon Rondo returns to the rankings after being un-ranked for the first time this season. Alliteration aside, Chris Paul stays at number one despite missing a few games, and Russell Westbrook took control of the tight race to be second best.

Rank	Prev	Player	Pts	Ast	Reb	Stl	To	DRtg	Win Shares	TPGR	Change
1	1	Chris Paul	17.0	14.3	3.3	2.3	3.0	104	0.300	40.22	0
		Very small sample size for these rankings, but in the 4 games Paul was able to start, he was unstoppable.
2	4	Russell Westbrook	27.5	7.3	6.4	1.3	2.6	105	0.196	33.48	+2
		Westbrook is leading all point guards in scoring, and has been taking good care of the ball.
3	6	Stephen Curry	23.8	7.5	2.5	2.5	1.8	113	0.156	29.55	+3
		Curry missed a couple of games due to his often injured ankle, but it did not seem to hurt his play.
4	7	Jrue Holiday	25.4	9.2	3.8	2.4	4.0	109	0.097	29.42	+3
		The Sixers are struggling, but Holiday is making his case for the All Star Game.
5	2	Tony Parker	22.1	7.3	1.9	1.0	3.9	105	0.210	26.33	-3
		Parker’s turnovers have spiked in the last two weeks, but he is still playing well enough to stay in the top five.
6	N/A	Damian Lillard	18.4	7.6	4.0	1.4	2.4	107	0.099	25.40	+5
		The rookie of the year candidate is doing what he can to get Portland into the playoffs.
7	N/A	Rajon Rondo	13.7	10.2	4.8	1.7	4.5	102	0.110	24.64	+4
		Rondo returns to the rankings, but has been turning the ball over at an alarming rate.
8	8	Jameer Nelson	18.1	8.4	3.0	1.6	2.1	116	0.098	24.30	0
		Nelson held onto eighth by averaging 18 and eight. Are we really living in a world where he is consistently the eighth best point guard?
9	3	Greivis Vasquez	15.1	9.9	4.7	1.3	3.9	106	0.068	24.06	-6
		Vasquez had jumped six spots to grab third last time, but fell back again to ninth.
10	10	Deron Williams	19.3	7.2	2.7	0.3	2.5	111	0.143	23.87	0
		Brooklyn fans must be happy with their team, but Deron Williams is still under-performing.
