Here are the latest updated rest-of-the-season points rankings and a breakdown by position.
Point guard
Trae Young has spent most of this season seeing headlines about how great Luka Doncic -- the man he was traded for -- has been playing. Recently, Young has been making headlines of his own and has thrown his hat back into the Rookie of the Year race with averages of 25.1 PPG (46.2 FG%, 84.7 FT%), 9.2 APG, 3.0 RPG and 3.3 3PG during his past 17 games.
Shooting guard
Zach LaVine had a dominant February, averaging 27.4 PPG (52.1 FG%, 78.2 FT%), 6.4 APG, 5.8 RPG and 2.9 3PG during 10 contests from Feb. 6 to March 1 to move several spots up the rankings. He had a poor game on Sunday with rumblings of a sore back, which could affect him in next week's rankings if the issue lingers.
Small forward
The Boston Celtics have been slumping, losers of four of their past five games, and sophomore Jayson Tatum has struggled as well. His numbers are down across the board of late, as he's averaged only 11.8 PPG (43.1 FG%, 85.7 FT%), 5.0 RPG, 1.6 SPG, 1.4 APG, 0.6 3PG and 0.2 BPG over the past five games.
Despite the struggles of the Los Angeles Lakers, Brandon Ingram is playing some of his best basketball of the season of late. He has scored at least 23 points in six straight games, a stretch during which he has averaged 27.8 PPG (57.0 FG%, 75.0 FT%), 7.5 RPG, 2.5 APG and 1.5 3PG to move up the rankings.
Power forward
Marvin Bagley III was playing his best basketball of the season before going down with a sprained left knee. He had averaged 23.0 PPG (53.4 FG%, 76.7 FT%), 9.0 RPG, 1.2 BPG, 1.4 APG, 1.0 SPG and 0.8 3PG in the five games prior to his injury, which is expected to be re-evaluated over the next two weeks.
Center
Yes, this is a Joakim Noah sighting. He struggled on Sunday, on the second half of a road back-to-back, but entered that game with averages of 15.2 PPG (58.5 FG%, 80.0 FT%), 9.4 RPG, 3.8 APG and 1.8 BPG in the five previous contests to earn a spot in the late-season rankings.
Note: These rankings reflect the expected player value for the remainder of this season.
Methodology
The rest-of-season rankings are influenced by my projections, current player performance, injury and player situation factors to quantitatively estimate the rankings with more precision.
Also, our rankings include arrows to indicate whether a given player made a notable move up or down the rankings since last week. This helps keep you up to speed with how player values are changing during the course of the season.
