Since taking over the starting point guard position for the , rookie Keyonte George has averaged 12.2 points, 6.5 assists, and 3.9 rebounds per game. Only 11 rookies in the last 20 years have hit 12+ points, 6+ assists, and 3+ rebounds for a full season.
Those players? Chris Paul, Derrick Rose, John Wall, Damian Lillard, Michael Carter-Williams, Ben Simmons, Luka Doncic, Trae Young, Ja Morant, LaMelo Ball, and Josh Giddey. I think it’s safe to say that Keyonte will end his rookie season hitting those thresholds, joining a pretty elite list of NBA rookies! Are all of those home runs?
