Another guy that is only on the watch list due to the poor week most rookies had last week.  He is no competition for the award.

He shouldn't.....

What is going on here???  These rookie really are just not impressive.  Now, I will say that Niang doubled his PPG average last week and almost doubled his rebounding.

Nice improvements as he was slotted into a starting role (due to injury).  Surprise numbers for Dario... 9 RPG!!  Nicely done for a stretch 4.  and 11 PPG isn't terrible.  Saric is also benefiting from a lack of stats from the Western rookies this week too.      

He was the best rookie in the West this week, averaging a solid double double with 20-12 splits.  Sure he's playing on a probable lottery team, but he's playing lights out compared to a lot of other rooks in similar situations.   

He quadrupled his scoring average this week and more that tripled his rebounds!!!

He' really not playing up to the level expected of a ROTW in the NLL

He plays for Toronto, who is openly selling their older parts for picks and youth.  He's gotta deal with getting beat up by opponents almost nightly.

Great rebounding numbers.  Solid steals and blocks too.  High FG%   

He led his team with a nice 23.5 PPG last week and shot over 50% from 3. He also improved his rebounding and assists this past week over his season averages.

The PPG is tops amongst all rookie candidates in the East this week!
