Total Point Guard Power Rankings: John Wall Joins the Elite

Home » TPGR » Total Point Guard Power Rankings: John Wall Joins the Elite

Mar 16, 2013; Washington, DC, USA; Washington Wizards point guard John Wall (2)

In the past two weeks, John Wall played the best basketball of his career, putting up over 20 points and eight assists per game while leading the top ten point guards in defensive rating. He joins Chris Paul and Deron Willaims in the elite 30+ point TPGR range.

Also of note, Kyrie Irving has fallen off the rankings for the first time since his dominance of All Star Weekend. It will be interesting to see if he can rejoin the top 10 in the next rankings.

Rank	Prev	Player	Pts	Ast	Reb	Stl	To	DRtg	Win Shares	TPGR	Change
1	3	Chris Paul	18.8	10.0	3.0	1.2	1.4	115	0.291	32.96	+2
		Chris Paul reclaims the top spot but has not been playing his best defense lately.
2	N/A	Deron Williams	24.2	8.8	3.5	1.3	2.5	105	0.158	32.82	+9
		Williams is going to have to keep up his solid play if the Nets are going to hang on to home court in the 1st round.
3	N/A	John Wall	20.6	8.6	4.7	2.3	3.1	98	0.100	30.22	+8
		If the Wizards had this John Wall for a full season, they would be a playoff team.
4	4	Stephen Curry	21.6	8.0	3.8	0.9	3.4	104	0.165	28.03	None
		Despite too many turnovers, Curry is playing well enough to keep the Warriors in the six seed.
5	10	Mike Conley	16.3	8.3	3.4	2.6	3.0	102	0.160	27.23	+5
		Conley should probably be getting more attention for his very solid season.
6	1	Russell Westbrook	23.3	5.5	5.6	1.5	3.0	104	0.194	26.89	-5
		Westbrook’s drop in assists corresponds with his drop in the rankings.
7	N/A	Damian Lillard	23.1	7.4	1.9	1.1	1.9	115	0.102	26.29	+4
		Lillard is finishing strong in his bid to be the rookie of the year.
8	7	Ty Lawson	19.3	6.6	2.3	1.0	2.0	105	0.134	25.65	-1
		When you think Denver, defense is not the first thing to come to mind, but Lawson is playing well on that end.
9	6	Brandon Jennings	16.6	10.3	2.6	1.1	2.4	117	0.103	25.52	-3
		Jennings continues to play well, but the Bucks will need even more if they want to avoid the Heat in the first round.
10	N/A	Jrue Holiday	15.6	10.4	4.4	1.9	3.1	112	0.073	25.28	+1
		Holiday’s solid year has mostly been wasted as the 76ers continue to disappoint.
