The undisputed best passer in the league for the last decade or so has finally lost his first position. Also in the pre-season GM survey, he secured second place with a total of 32% votes.

One of the highest basketball IQs in the game, one of the best court visions, and also one of the most efficient passers in the league. Boasting 4.79 assists per turnover while averaging 9.6 assists per game is a feat in itself. Along with that, he is also leading the league in assist% per pass with 18.7%. Also, averaging 2.4 assists in the 4th quarter (tied league best) and a league-best 1.3 assists per game in the clutch (although the sample size is too small for only 3 games).
