We're officially one month into the 2019-20 NBA season, and things are starting to heat up. Both conferences look a lot more balanced and competitive than we expected, a legend has returned to the game, and the league's best have returned at an even higher level. Plus, off the court, there's been a number of interesting storylines, including some potential big changes to the schedule.
Here's a look at some of the most interesting narratives from the first month of the season, and whether or not they're worth buying or selling.
Buy or Sell: Doncic is the leading MVP candidate
Sell. After his stellar Rookie of the Year campaign last season, Luka Doncic made it clear he was going to be a star in this league. But even his most ardent supporters couldn't have expected him to be this good, this soon. Just 16 games into his second season, Doncic has established himself as one of the best players in the league. After 41 points, six rebounds and 10 assists in the Mavericks' victory over the Rockets on Sunday -- their fifth straight -- Doncic is nearly averaging a triple-double at 30.6 points, 10.1 rebounds and 9.8 assists per game. He's second in scoring and assists, 13th in rebounds and has already put together a number of historic performances. More than that, he has the Mavericks in fourth place in the West at 11-5, and in position to get back to the playoffs for the first time since 2016.
