Who are some other rookies that really impressed you to start off the season? I expect Scoot to pick it up as the season progresses, along with Amen and Ausar. The offense is known to take a little longer for guards.

Worth noting that Ausar Thompson is leading all rookies in rebounds per game and assists per game.

My team's rookie is the best rookie!

We just need Lively to play more, barely got any minutes against the Nets. He fits in so well with Luka and Kyrie and is an immediate presence on the defensive side even tho it doesn’t always reflect on the box score.

2nd Year Rookies are so dumb. Chet Holmgren wasn't in the draft last year, he is not a rookie, he was injured his rookie season. Now he is a Sophomore. It's unfair to the other players that are actually rookies that he got a full-year head start.

Holding a year of eligibility, like it's college football, is silly AF.
