Tim Frazier Named NBA D-League's MVP and Rookie of the Year

Not a bad first professional season for the Nittany Lion legend.

Tim Frazier's first year as a pro has gone just about as well as it could have. He's played for two NBA teams, joined elite company with his debut in the NBA and is currently playing with the Portland Trailblazers in the Playoffs.

Of course, Frazier wouldn't have made it to the Association unless he tore it up in the NBA Development League. He did just that as a member of the Maine Red Claws, as he recorded four triple-doubles in 41 games and averaged 16.
