Who are the top 5 rookies on the NBA's current rookie ladder (doesn't have to be in order)?
1. Cooper Flagg, Dallas Mavericks
Season stats: 19.2 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 3.8 apg
Last Ladder: No. 1 ↔️
Draft pick: No. 1
Belated Ladder birthday wishes go out to Flagg, who turned 19 on Sunday and now has a whole new peer group against whom he’ll be measured after pushing into the LeBron James-Kobe Bryant chatter about 18-year-olds. “The Maine Event’s” stellar week (24 ppg, 7.3 rpg, 5.5 apg) peaked in prime time Tuesday when he went for 33 points, nine rebounds and nine assists (with a steal and a block, too) while shooting 14-of-21 (and even stretching his range with 4-of-6 on 3-pointers). He logged 40 minutes, and Dallas was 10 points better when he was on the floor compared to nine points worse vs. Denver when Flagg sat.
2. Kon Knueppel, Charlotte Hornets
Season stats: 19.4 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 3.5 apg
Last Ladder: No. 2 ↔️
Draft pick: No. 4
“Comparison is the thief of joy,” Teddy Roosevelt reportedly said, and while that might be true in day-to-day life, the sportswriting profession would be lost without it. So when Knueppel became the fastest NBA player to sink 100 3-pointers at the start of his career this week, comparisons flowed. He’s blown away recent competition: Lauri Markkanen had done it in 41 games with the Bulls in 2017-18, second to Knueppel’s 29. Then there was Knueppel vs. the gold standard: Stephen Curry needed 58 games to reach 100. It’s important to note that Curry only attempted 4.8 per game as a 2009-10 rookie to Knueppel’s 8.7, and is largely responsible for the longball boom. Still, the rookie’s 3.63 makes per game has been surpassed in a full season by just 15 players since the NBA first drew its arc in 1979.
3. Derik Queen, New Orleans Pelicans
Season stats: 13.4 ppg, 6.8 rpg, 4.1 apg
Last Ladder: No. 3 ↔️
Draft pick: No. 13
The high of their five-game winning streak waned with the adrenaline when New Orleans got routed in Cleveland less than 24 hours later. Yet there was Queen, grinding in the second half with 19 of his 21 points, also finishing with seven rebounds and five assists. He is in some lofty company already, and former NBA guard Jeff Teague praised the Pelicans’ Joe Dumars for making the much-criticized trade to draft Queen. “The thing about Derik, he can play like this the rest of his life,” Teague said on his podcast. “He’s going to be in New Orleans for 10 to 12 years.”
4. VJ Edgecombe, Philadelphia 76ers
Season stats: 16 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 4 apg
Last Ladder: No. 5 ⬆️
Draft pick: No. 3
In his four most recent appearances, Edgecombe averaged 24.3 points, 17.5 field-goal attempts and 37.8 minutes, shooting 50% (40% on 3-pointers) as the Sixers won three. He missed Tuesday due to the illness spreading through the roster. Philadelphia is 9-5 when this rookie scores 14 or more and 7-7 when he doesn’t.
5. Dylan Harper, San Antonio Spurs
Season stats: 12.2 ppg, 3.2 rpg, 3.9 apg
Last Ladder: No. 7 ⬆️
Draft pick: No. 2
If you’re focusing on his scoring, you’re missing a lot of Harper’s value. He has averaged a modest 11.1 ppg in the Spurs’ current seven-game winning streak, including a season-best 24 points against the Wizards. But in the second victory over the Thunder in 10 days, Harper had 10 assists and five steals in the surprising blowout. All in barely 20 minutes.
