Hot Take: Darius Acuff Jr. wins Rookie of the Year.
Not Cam Boozer. Not Yaxel Lendeborg. The seventh pick. He’s a 6’2” point guard with a handle you can’t strip, pull-up range and one of the best passing games in the class. Vegas had him at +1200 before the season. Six games in, he leads every rookie at 26.3 points and 6.3 assists.
The start was ugly: 12 points on 5-of-24 in his debut, and an NBA-record 73 shots in his first three games. Then came 34 and 14 against New Orleans, and 38 with nine threes against Memphis. Sacramento has handed him the keys, and Flagg won this award last year on a 26-win team by leading the class in scoring.
