The NBA announced on Wednesday the members of the best rookie team of the season, with Cooper Flagg standing out as the main protagonist after leading a first-team selection in which he was unanimously chosen.
The Dallas player was joined on the All-Rookie First Team by Kon Knueppel from Charlotte, and VJ Edgecombe from Philadelphia, who also received unanimous votes. The team was completed by Dylan Harper from San Antonio and Cedric Coward from Memphis.
Harper also appeared on 100 ballots, receiving 93 votes for the first team and seven for the second.
The five members of the best rookie team were also the only players who received votes in the Rookie of the Year selection, a prize that Flagg eventually won ahead of Knueppel in a very close vote.
Second Best Team
The second best rookie team included Jeremiah Fears and Derik Queen, both from New Orleans, Ace Bailey from Utah, Maxime Raynaud from Sacramento, and Collin Murray-Boyles from Toronto.
The NBA will continue to announce its individual awards in the coming days. The best defensive team will be revealed on Friday, while the All-NBA Team will be announced on Sunday. The Coach of the Year award will be announced on Tuesday.
