Rookie Rankings1. Tyreke Evans – Evans is top 5 in points, assists and even rebounds for rookies this year.
2. Brandon Jennings – Jennings had an amazing week averaging just over 19 ppg and 7 assists and the Bucks recovered going 2-1.
3. Stephen Curry – Curry is shooting 37% from 3-point land and has made 27 on the year.
4. James Harden – Harden needs to improve his sub 40% shooting percentage; regardless still averaging almost 10 off the bench.
5. Taj Gibson – Gibson had two 11 rebound games last week to continue to lead all rookies in that category.
6. Darren Collison – As Collison’s minutes decrease, so does his shooting %.
7. Jonny Flynn – Flynn’s taking better shots over the course of last week and it showed by him scoring a lot more.
8. Wesley Matthews – I’m not really sure why this rookie takes 12 shots a game, especially when he is cold all night but hey the Jazz are ok with it.
9. Tyler Hansbrough – Making his debut in the rankings Hansbrough recorded his first double-double of his career last week.
10. Jonas Jerebko – He may have gotten posterized but he is part of the reason the Pistons have won 5 in a row.

On the cusp: Sam Young, DeMar DeRozan
