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.

1 1 Chris Paul 17.0 14.3 3.3 2.3 3.0 104 0.300 40.22 0

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.

The Sixers are struggling, but Holiday is making his case for the All Star Game.

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?
