To be a rookie means being a new member of an athletic group in his or her first full season in that particular sport. The National Basketball Association, commonly known as the NBA, designates a ‘Rookie of the Year’ Award to the top rookie(s) of the regular season and was started after the 1952-1953 season.
The lucky rookie is selected by a panel of Canadian and United States broadcasters or sportswriters who each casts three placement votes with each carrying various points. The winner of the award is the player(s) with the highest point total.
Some of the greatest ‘Rookie of the Year’ awardees include Michael Jordan of Chicago Bulls, Shaquille O’Neal of Orlando Magic, LeBron James of Cleveland Cavaliers and Kevin Durant of Seattle SuperSonics, among others. There have also been a few Rookies of the Year awardees who were not born in the United States such as Pau Gasol of Spain, Kyrie Irving of Australia, Andrew Wiggins of Canada, and Patrick Ewing of Jamaica.
Though they may be inexperienced and somewhat underrated, many rookies have landed slam-dunks, going on to be some of the greatest players in NBA history. Can you name them all?
