NBA Weekly Player Rankings: Week 9

Tyreke Evans is averaging more than 23 points, six assists and five rebounds per game over his last five, and he makes a big jump in the positional rankings thanks to four games this week.
NBA Weekly Player Rankings: Week 9

This is our weekly cheat sheet based on a player's projected output and number of games. It assumes an eight-category league with the following categories: points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, three-pointers made, free-throw percentage and field-goal percentage.

These are my rankings. They do not necessarily correspond with the RotoWire cheat sheet or our projections for the season. I use both as a rough guide, but I primarily factor in number of games played for the week, current player trends and pertinent information about the team (injuries, time share situations, etc). The rankings takes into account games played Monday through Saturday. We will try to update the meter with any breaking news that happens on Sunday, but in most cases, any injuries, lineup changes, etc. that happen on Sunday won't be accounted for in the rankings until the following week.

Week 9: Dec. 11 - Dec. 17

Four Games: BKN, BOS, CHA, CLE, DET, HOU, LAC, MEM, MIA, OKC, POR, TOR, WAS
Three Games: ATL, CHI, DAL, DEN, IND, MIL, MIN, NOP, NYK, ORL, PHO, SAC, SAS, UTA
Two Games: GSW, LAL, PHI
