For most players, the rookie season is the starting point of their careers, and if the rookie season is outstanding, it will become the league superstar in the future. For example, Chamberlain, who won the regular season MVP and scoring champion in the rookie season, and Duncan and James, became the team boss in the rookie season. Of course, most of the rookies have performed mediocre in the season, but they have accumulated and achieved great success in their careers, such as Kobe, Alphabet Brother, Jokic and so on. But in addition to this, there is a kind of player, in the rookie season to play their own career highlight moment, and in the time since, the performance is not as good as a year, such a player is also a miracle, let's see who it is!
No. 7: Marzan Brooks; 196cm tall Brooks is the 2011 first round No. 25 pick, rookie season, playing for the Nets, he averaged 29.6 minutes per game, can contribute 12.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists 0.9 steals, shooting 42.8%, a remarkable performance. Although he has a good rhythm of play, is good at singles with the ball, and has a reputation as "Little Kobe", poor shooting choices make him rarely reused by the team. In the Second Season of the Nets, he only got 2 starts, averaged only 5.4 points per game, and began to wander in the third season, becoming a marginal member of the team. In 2015, Marsan Brooks landed in the CBA and started a new career.
No. 6: Trey Burke; Burke, who is only 185cm tall, was named to the All-America Team several times during his college years and entered the NBA as the 2013 first-round No. 9 pick. In his rookie season, he averaged 12.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 0.6 steals per game for the Jazz, won the Rookie of the Month several times, and was successfully selected as the best rookie. His outstanding performance also allowed him to sit in the Jazz's starting point guard position, but the height and confrontation disadvantages were also highlighted in the game, and his 36.8% shooting percentage per game this season was obviously not passed, so the team sent him away in the third year. Today, he only averages 5.1 points per game in the Lone Ranger, but in the small-ball era, he still shoots less than 40% of the season's shooting, and averaging 10 minutes per game is also the lowest in his career.
No. 5: Jalil Okafor; Okafor from Duke University, a prestigious basketball school in the United States, is definitely the proud son of heaven. In the 15th year draft, the 76ers selected this big man who was comparable to Duncan with the Tanhua Show. In his rookie season, Okafor performed prominently, averaging 17.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 blocks per game, and was selected as the best rookie team and was selected for the U.S. team in the summer. However, in each season since then, his playing time has been significantly reduced, and he was traded to the Nets in the third year, averaging only 6.2 points per game. Because the style of play is too traditional, he has not been able to adapt to the current rhythm of the game, and he has not developed a mid-range shooting, it is difficult for him to do anything without the basket, and now he has come to the CBA and played in the playoffs with the team as a main player.
No. 4: OJ. Mayo; 196cm tall Mayo is an excellent two-legged defender, because he has a high basketball IQ and accurate projection, so he has always been called the "upper Jordan, lower limit Kobe" man. In the 2008 draft, Mayo entered the NBA as a flower show, and in his rookie season, he played for the Grizzlies and started the team, averaging 18.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.1 steals per game, and was selected as the best rookie team. Later, with the arrival of Tony Allen and his own depravity, the appearance time decreased and the state declined seriously. He later played a strong performance of 15+3+4 per game for the Mavericks, but later he was gradually marginalized due to personal reasons and injuries. After several twists and turns, Mayo also came to the CBA to continue his basketball dreams.
No. 3: Michael Carter Williams; 198cm tall he is a tall point guard, in the 2013 draft, the 76ers selected him with the 11th pick in the first round, and he had a quasi-quadruple-double performance of 22+7+12+9 steals in the first game of his career, conquering countless fans. He averaged 16.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.9 steals and 0.6 blocks per game in his rookie season, making him the rookie of the year. However, fate played a joke on him, he suffered an injury in the second year of his career, then was traded by the team, and every year since, his performance has declined. Although his height and strength are superior in the position of point guard, his projection is average, the situation of more mistakes has never improved, and injuries have always plagued him. He averaged only 8+4+4 per game last season for the Magic, and has been cut this year by the team due to injuries.
No. 2: Emeka Okafor; 208CM tall, he is a stout center similar to Big Ben, he was the 2004 debut, in the 04-05 season, playing for the Bobcats, he averaged 15.1 points, 10.9 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.7 blocks, successfully stealing the best rookie from "Warcraft" Howard. However, known as the "big stomach king", he increased his weight to 127 kilograms in his rookie season, which caused him to start injuring his ankle and his career went downhill. Although almost all the 10 years of his career have been starters, he has not played like a rookie season, in 2012, he averaged 9.7 + 8.8 per game, but due to injury troubles, he has not been renewed by the team, and then a short comeback, has not played anything famous, is a big man plagued by injuries.
No. 1: Terek Evans; 198cm tall, he was once the "first high school student in the United States", with strong physical fitness and excellent arm span, he was once a top two-position. In the 2009 draft, the Kings selected Evans in the fourth place in the first round, and in the rookie season, Evans averaged 20.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.5 steals per game, pushing Harden, Curry and others to win the rookie of the year. However, such a talented player did not evolve into a regular season MVP like Harden and Curry, but willingly degenerated, laissez-faire, due to injury troubles, his state has declined, but the chaos of his private life and addiction to alcohol are the important reasons for his slump. In the 18-19 season, he averaged 10+3+2 per game, but was banned by the league for 2 years, and now he has no ball to play.
