James Ennis – Miami Heat/SF

The best game of the week for the Miami Heat’s small forward James Ennis came against the San Antonio Spurs. Ennis played well and finished with seven points on 3-for-6 shooting, eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot.

JaKarr Sampson – Philadelphia 76ers/SG

After putting together a very impressive string of games last week, Jakarr Sampson once again showed that he deserves to stay in the league. Sampson is still playing strong and when he played against the Golden State Warriors he finished with 10 points on 5-for-7 shooting, six rebounds, two assists, and one steal.

P.J. Hairston – Charlotte Hornets/SG

The Charlotte Hornets don’t play P.J. Hariston enough. In fact, he rarely plays at all. However, when Hairston played against the Detroit Pistons he made sure he made the most of his minutes. Hairston finished with 16 points, two rebounds and one assist. What was more impressive was seeing Hairston shoot 4-for-9 from the three-point line, for 44 percent.

Shabazz Napier – Miami Heat/PG

The point guard, Shabazz Napier, has been playing very well for the Miami Heat recently. The best game of the week for Napier came against the Minnesota Timberwolves as he finished with six points, three rebounds, seven assists and one steal. In addition, Napier also had a good game against the Spurs as he left off the court with four points, one rebound, five assists and no turnovers.

Zach LaVine – Minnesota Timberwolves/PG

Its been tough for Zach LaVine to get on the court these days with Ricky Rubio back in full health. However when LaVine played against the Detroit Pistons he had a good game as he finished with 10 points on 5-for-6 shooting, three rebounds, and three assists in 18 minutes of playing time. Two of those 10 points included this awesome dunk by the way.
