The Best Rookie In The NBA That Nobody Is Talking About.



There’s been a ton of hype surrounding the rookie class this season. From the plays of Victor Wembanyama that make you question what reality is. To the monster impact of Chet Holmgren on the most promising young team in the NBA. To the absurd statistical and athletic feats of Ausar Thompson. Guys like that are getting a ton of hype for good reason. But one rookie who’s stood out recently to me has been Jazz guard Keyonte George. George was a prospect I had as a lottery talent that I believed was worth a top 10 pick. But he fell to pick 16 landing with the Utah Jazz. While George may not have numbers that stand out compared to his rookie peers. But he’s gotten more opportunity as a starter recently. And has looked really good on tape.

My name is Noah Terranova. On this channel I make videos breaking down the film of basketball players in both long term and single game contexts. I use a combination of advanced stats, basic stats, tracking stats, and what I take away from watching the games to form my evalutions. My goal is to give my own perspective on the game with my own little twist on how I choose to present it.

  2. Excited to look back on all these videos when this generation of players are in year 10 etc and see who set themselves apart from the others. Great content per usual.

  3. Keyonte is the most underappreciated rookie by far. It's not only about the scoring ability. Keyonte's biggest asset is that he makes everyone else in the team look better. Super valuable player and I wouldn't honestly be surprised if after few years he was considered as the best out of current rookies.
