Dallas Mavericks rookie Luka Doncic keeps piling up unprecedented honors.
The 19-year-old point forward was named the December Western Conference Rookie of the Month, becoming the first Mavs player to earn the award in his first two months in the NBA. He’s the first Dallas rookie to win the award more than once in a season since Jay Vincent won it three times in 1981-82.
In December, Doncic scored 20 or more points in 10 of 15 games, including two 30-plus point games. He averaged 21.1 points, 6.4 rebounds, 6.1 assists and a 1.1 steals a game during the month.
