San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama is the early favorite to win NBA Rookie of the Year but the No. 1 pick will have some competition for the award.
With the start of training camp still over a month away, ESPN has been publishing predictions for the upcoming season. Their analysts and reporters have touched on a variety of topics and awards thus far, including Rookie of the Year.
In addition to Wembanyama, there are other players who seemingly have a strong chance to win the award, including Oklahoma City Thunder forward Chet Holmgren, Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller and Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson among others.
