NBA's official rookie list: Wembanyama beats Holmgren to lead the two-time list to advance to the top 5

On November 9, Beijing time, the NBA officially announced the latest rookie list. Wembanyama beat last year's top spot, Holmgren, and topped the rookie list. Pistons No. 5 pick Osar Thompson is No. 3, and he and teammate Sather are in the top 10 at the same time. Brandon Miller is No. 4 and Mavericks interior Lively is No. 5. Holmgren and Miller are both in the top 5, and the Pistons and Thunder are two teams with multiple players on the list.

1. Wembanyama (champion), Spurs

Averaged 19.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game

Wembanyama has surprised fans so far, and he is ahead of other rookie players in terms of scoring, free throws, blocks, etc., fully demonstrating his value as a top pick. Especially in the two games against the Suns, he helped the Spurs complete a 20-point comeback once, and once scored 38 points and 10 rebounds on the opponent's crazy data, which overshadowed Durant, a superstar. He is expected to become the first unanimous Rookie of the Year since Downs, and welcome everyone to the Wembanyama era.

2. Holmgren (22 Eye), Thunder

Averaged 17 points, 8 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game

Holmgren showed his sophisticated side through the court, and he matured to the point that he didn't even look like a rookie player. In the game against the Cavaliers, he even sent 7 blocks to help the Thunder narrowly win the opponent. It's a testament to the fact that he didn't get nothing last season, and he's been learning how to read games and keep himself growing. After the game with the Warriors, Curry took the initiative to change jerseys with him and affirmed his strength. Holmgren will also be Wembanyama's biggest rival for the Rookie of the Year challenge.

3. Osar Thompson (No. 5 pick), Pistons

Averaged 12 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game

Osar Thompson is not as tall and arm as Wembanyama and Holmgren, but he dominates the rookie rebounding charts with his excellent physical fitness and amazing rebounding sense, which is reminiscent of the Pistons' former best defensive player Ben Wallace, and Osar Thompson has great potential to develop in this area. As things stand, he's established in the Pistons' youth army.

4. Brandon Miller (Leaderboard), Hornets

Averaged 13.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game

Miller's poor performances in the summer league and preseason made it seem like Jordan had once again lost his eyes in the draft. But he gradually adapted to the rhythm of the league after the start of the regular season, and handed over a good stat sheet, much to the relief of Charlotte fans. While he struggled to make his debut as a starter, scoring just seven points on 3-of-12 shooting against league superstar Irving, that didn't erase his bright moments off the bench.

5. Lively (No. 12 pick), Mavericks

Averaged 9 points and 7.7 rebounds per game

Lively came off the bench to deliver a double-double of 16 points and 10 rebounds in his debut, conquering Mavericks fans. You know, his highest score in college was just 13 points, and it was a surprise to break this record on his debut alone. This is also the main reason why he has been in the team's starting game since Game 2, and the main reason why the Mavericks have started the season with a good record of 6 wins and 1 loss. Clearly, Lively has gradually become the best blue-collar player in this year's draft.

6. Jordan Hawkins (No. 14 pick), Pelicans

Averages: 12.6 points and 4.0 rebounds per game

7. Scott Henderson (Tanhua), Trail Blazers

Averages: 8.8 points and 4.6 assists per game

8. Suser (No. 25 show), Piston

Averaged 9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game

9. Strauser (No. 29 pick), Nuggets

Average: 6.8 points per game

10. Carson Wallace (No. 10 pick), Thunder

Averages: 8 points and 2.4 rebounds per game
