Ranking the Top 10 Point Guards for the 2015-16 NBA Season

7. Damian Lillard

Damian Lillard exploded onto the NBA scene in 2012, winning the Rookie of the Year award and becoming one of the must-see offensive point guards in the league. His combination of slashing and shooting proved to be an effective compliment to the low-post brilliance of LaMarcus Aldridge.

Unfortunately for Lillard, after the departure of LaMarcus Aldridge to the San Antonio Spurs, the young point guard and the new-look Portland Trail Blazers will face an uphill battle.

With a young, unproven team going forward and the weight of the team falling squarely on the young guard’s shoulders, Lillard will soon prove whether his place on this list is warranted.

Next: Kyle Lowry
