Rookies of the month | Jared McCain and Jaylen Wells open the ball

The NBA begins its distribution of trophies of the month, and it is the rookies who launch the rewards. Unsurprisingly, it is Jared McCain who takes the top spot in the Eastern Conference.

It must be said that the 16th choice of the last Draft was one of the only rays of sunshine at the start of the season for the Sixers, with an average of 16.0 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists in October and November.

He was thus preferred to Bub Carrington and Alex Sarr (Washington) as well as Zaccharie Risacher (Atlanta).

In the West, the choice was less clear but the Great League decided to honor Jaylen Wellsthe 39th choice of the last vintage, who established himself as a potential starter for the Grizzlies, with an average of 12.2 points at 39% success behind the 3-point line.

For his part, he was preferred to Stephon Castle (San Antonio), Donovan Clingan (Portland), Ryan Dunn (Phoenix), Zach Edey (Memphis) and Dalton Knecht (LA Lakers), who were also named in the Western Conference.
