First Week All-NBA Team: Five Biggest Standouts

The first week-plus of the NBA season is in the books. Opening night tipped off on the 19th, most teams started their season in earnest on the 20th, and now 10 days later, the season is slowly but surely starting to take shape. So now seems like as appropriate a time as any to recognize what I’m calling the First Week All-NBA team. These are five players—two guards, two forwards, and one center—who’ve balled out at the start of the season. With the caveat that this is obviously way too early to draw any serious conclusions, they’re also five people who I believe will be interesting figures to keep an eye on from now through the spring.
