Heading into a year with high but equally tempered expectations, the Spurs' 2nd overall pick, Dylan Harper, has broken them all. Many expected the rookie to deal with some growing pains and the typical struggles of a first-year point guard, but besides a few minor errors, the rookie has fully lived up to the hype.

Through Harper's first three games of the season, he amassed a very impressive 48 points, 15 rebounds, and 13 assists. While these numbers may not appear eye-popping, they should. Only one other player in NBA history has piled up these statistics through their first three career games: none other than his own teammate, De'Aaron Fox.
