The 10 Best NBA Performances From Last Week: A Point Guard Explosion

1. Mike Conley vs. Phoenix Suns

Speaking of Conley, Westbrook may have gotten the best of him Friday, but the Grizzlies' point guard had his big day to start out the week. Against the Phoenix Suns, in Phoenix, Conley scored a season-high 38 points to help give Memphis a 115-96 victory.

In his 32 minutes, the big money man filled up the statsheet elsewhere, with 9 assists, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals. His 99.6 defensive rating was also as solid as they come. However, the offensive end is where Conley did most of his damage.

In scoring 38, Conley needed just 18 shot attempts. He capitalized from three-point range, hitting 7 of his 10 attempts, while also getting his from the line (7 of 8). His 76.89 nERD is more than the rest of the Memphis team combined and was nearly 70 points more than the Suns' highest player. It's plain to see that Conley had the best, most-efficient performance of a busy week in the Association.
