#4 Eric Paschall - Golden State Warriors

Eric Paschall's numbers have been down since the return of D'Angelo Russell, although the 23-year-old enjoyed his best week since November as he finally adapts to his new role. During games against the Mavericks, Nuggets, Magic, and Trail Blazers, Paschall averaged 18.5 points while shooting well over 50 percent from the field.

Most notably, Paschall recorded 22 points, 13 rebounds, and 2 assists during Golden State's loss to Portland - and the power forward's three-point shooting continues to show signs of improvement. At the midway point of the season, Paschall is averaging 14.1 points and 4.8 rebounds in just 27.4 minutes per contest - and the Warriors certainly got one of the biggest steals of the 2019 draft.

Tyler Herro missed the first two games of the week due to a knee injury, and his minutes were limited during games against the Spurs and Kings. Nevertheless, during his 17 minutes on the court against Sacramento, Herro knocked down two of his four 3-point attempts while also coming up with three steals.

Admittedly, Herro has lost some ground on the other leading contenders over the past week, although the 20-year-old is still averaging 12.9 points per contest despite appearing from Miami's bench. Herro is also connecting with 38.7 percent of his 5.3 three-point attempts per contest - and the shooting guard will be hoping to make a greater impact this week following his return to health.
