The obvious pick for Rookie of the Year at this point would be John Wall, the No. 1 overall pick of the Washington Wizards, who already started drawing rave reviews after NBA Summer League.
Standing in his way will be Blake Griffin, the No. 1 pick from 2009 who gets re-classified as a rookie after missing all of last season with a broken kneecap; DeMarcus Cousins, the No. 5 pick from this season and his former teammate from Kentucky; and Evan Turner, the No. 2 pick of the Philadelphia 76ers, among others. Needless to say, if Wall's dreaming of being the third straight point guard ROY, he's got his work cut out for him.
