Victor Wembanyama got 99 out of 99 first-place votes for Rookie of the Year. Chet Holmgren got 98 of 99 second-place votes. But who cares about those guys? Brandin Podziemski got four of a possible 99 third-place votes, and that’s enough to finish 5th in the ROY vote.
Victor Wembanyama gets all 99 first-place votes to join David Robinson (1989-90) and Tim Duncan (1997-98) as San Antonio’s NBA Rookie of the Year winners.
