Rookie of the Year

Neil Patrick Healy says: Emmanuel Mudiay – Denver Nuggets

With the departure of former point guard Ty Lawson, The Nuggets took Mudiay with the seventh overall pick and it looks like he will take over the starting point guard role on opening night. Standing at 6 feet 5 inches, he is what NBA general managers dream about from the point guard position. He is fast, can run the floor, has good ball handling skills and can get to the rim and draw fouls.
