Ty Lawson, Sacramento Kings, point guard, #10

Ty Lawson is putting up modest numbers this season. In November, averaging 7.2 points, 4.3 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game.

His standout performance came against the Los Angeles Clippers on November 18, 2016. Although the Kings lost the game 121-115, Lawson scored 18 points, dished out eight assists and grabbed six rebounds.

In addition to that, he shot 70% from the field and 66% from three-point range.

Now that Darren Collison is back, Lawson comes off the bench. Lawson has been a pleasant surprise for the Kings.
