Power ranking NBA Western Conference point guards

The NBA is immersed in its golden age of point guards and the Western Conference has some of the best.

The talent at the point guard position has helped revolutionize the NBA in recent years. As a result, nearly every team has a franchise floor general; only the 76ers, Bucks, and Kings haven’t invested highly into one.  Play has sped up, scoring has increased and the game has been brought out to the perimeter as point guards dominate the ball more and more. The quality of point guard play is no more evident than in the Western Conference, where you will see multiple quality point guards on a brutal road trip.

With the conference stacked from top to bottom with playmakers, a simple All-Star nod at guard will be a great honor this year. But with so much talent, it’s not entirely clear who the best ones out West truly are.

Fans of the NBA will look back at this era and wonder just how so many great players ended up playing against each other in the same conference. Power ranking Western Conference point men is a topic that is hotly debated, but we’ve got the answers for which have been the best in the 2016-17 season.
