Which players will be the most successful as rookies in the NBA?
Blake Griffon Forward Los Angeles Clippers
With his talent and will, Blake Griffon will dominate as a rookie as he did at the University of Oklahoma, if he gets enough playing time. He has a great team to help him, though the Clippers were devistated by injuries last season. As the number one pick in the NBA draft, Blake Griffon will be amazing in his first NBA season.
Tyreke Evans Guard Sacramento Kings
He is a very talented and tall guard that will need to be a leader for Sacramento to be a success.
Evans is a winner, as shown in the amazing season that he and his team, Memphis, had last year. His winning attitude will provide the spark that the Kings need for a much better season.
Stephen Curry Guard Golden State Warriors
He has done what many people thought was impossible. Curry took a team, Davidson, which was practically Division II, and single-handedly brought them to the Elite Eight last year. He was also the leading scorer across America. If he has a season anything close to the seasons that that he has had in the past two years, he will be the Rookie of the Year.
James Harden Guard Oklahoma City Thunder
Harden is a fantastic lefty scorer with a great competitive game that will help him and his team a lot. He will be great teammates with Thunder players Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant. He is a great fit for this team and the Thunder will be a great team in six years.
Players For the Future
Jrue Holiday Guard Philidalphia 76ers
A young all around player who was Gatorade National High School player of the year a year ago.
DeMar Derozan Guard Toronto Raptors
A very athletic player who has electrifying dunks and is only 19 years old.
Lester Hudson Guard Boston Celtics
A player who has been strongly overlooked for playing in an unknown league. Once he gets to play, the second best scorer last year will be a very good player for Boston.
Brandon Jennings Guard Milwaulkee Bucks
A super speedy explosive player who is a project, but will be dominant.
Darren Collison Guard New Orleans Hornets
Played in three final fours in college and was a two time All-American. When he gets the starting job, he will be great.
Hasheem Thabeet Center Memphis Grizzlies
The 7'2 and 1/2 foot center needs some time to get some offence going, but for now, 4.4 block per game is great.
