In the first month of the 2015-16 NBA season many players performed great, but none played as well as Stephen Curry. Curry averaged 30 points, 6 assists, and 5 rebounds throughout the month while leading the Warriors to a record breaking 19-0 start. Curry also had 5-40 point performances which is absolutely outrageous considering many of the league’s all-stars had one or two. Although it is too early to tell, Curry looks like he is in store for another MVP season. His effect on the Warriors is like no other single player has on his respective team. He brings it every night whether it be defensively, offensively, or both.

Bottom line is Stephen Curry is putting himself into the conversation as the best player in the NBA. He is like nothing the league has ever seen before and that is why he is the player of the month for November 2015-16.
