NBA Special Report - John Wall and his chances of winning Rookie of the Year Award
This year the Rookie of the Year Award has some contenders but the standout player, who is somewhat the favourite for the award is John Wall according to the NBA experts. The Washington Wizards man is awed by the franchise as a saviour for the team, and
without any doubt possesses the abilities and skills to meet these expectations. However, even though this player is the overall first pick in the 2010 draft pick, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he would win the Rookie of the Year award. In the past decade
only two players have managed to be the overall first pick and also win the Rookie of the Year award, namely LeBron James and the big Derrick Rose.
The Wizards are very hopeful that this season they will get some success, since they will be playing with two point guards. Wall and Arenas both would be the key players in the line-up, and Arenas will be more of a player who has to act as a playmaker, with
Wall giving the match the final touch, steering success for the Wizards and personal achievements for John Wall.
Reports suggest that the Wizards is a team considered to be finishing in the playoffs at least, with John Wall leading their way ahead of other players who have the potential to put in good performances. Not only this, the Wizards team is being seen as a
team who will surely improve in terms of wins and losses record. The predictions that have come across by the senior sports analysts is that if this player is able to fit into the Wizards squad, then without any doubt Wall will be the standout performer for
sure, and a strong contender for the Rookie of the Year award.
The sports journalists see Lance Stephenson posing a strong threat to John Wall’s road to glory. This potential candidate for the rookie of the year award was picked by the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the 2010 draft pick.
This player has a good game and only needs to improve on his defensive techniques. But when it comes to the offense, then this player is an efficient yet an explosive scorer. This statement can be supported by his performance in the Summer League. The
only thing that could be alarming for the Pacers would be the fact that this player has a very bad off-court behaviour that saw him being arrested recently. If this player manages his attitude and concentrates on his game, then he can very well win the Rookie
of the Year award.
Another player who will be looking to give the No.1 pick of the 2010 draft pick a tough time is Derrick Caracter. This player was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers as the overall 58th pick and after playing in the Summer League with the Lakers,
analysts say that this player showed potential of being the overall first round pick. Though this player is expected to make the bench of the Lakers, reports suggest that this player would be coming off the bench if he performs to the best of his abilities.
And not only this, this player can very well compete for the starting line-up, if he performs the way he did in the Summer League and be a strong candidate in his pursue for the Rookie of the Year award.
