"Tre Johnson entered the regular season as one of the most anticipated and exciting rookies to watch. Not only did the incoming rookie have eyes on him due to his role on a Washington Wizards team that could desperately benefit from the offense Johnson has to offer, but because of his potential to be one of the best rookies from the 2025 NBA Draft class."
"VJ Edgecombe was selected with the No. 3 overall pick by the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason and while there's no doubt he's talented, many wondered if his role on a stacked roster such as the Sixers would allow for him to make a legitimate run at the rookie award. Nonetheless, through the start of the season, Edgecombe has put that doubt to rest and now finds himself arguably in the driver seat of the ROTY race."
Tre Johnson entered the regular season as a highly anticipated rookie with significant scoring upside and an immediate role on the Washington Wizards. Cooper Flagg, the No. 1 pick to the Dallas Mavericks, paired all-around ability with a chance to contribute to a playoff contender right away. Other top picks such as Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey were also in early consideration for Rookie of the Year. VJ Edgecombe, the No. 3 pick to the Philadelphia 76ers, has overcome questions about his role on a stacked roster by posting strong early-season production and now appears to be a frontrunner in the ROTY race. Current partial stats list Flagg at 13.8 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 3.0 APG.
