We highlighted the Timberwolves’ ranking as the 10th team in the Western Conference when ESPN kicked-off their series a few days ago, but now, individual players are being mentioned in a variety of categories.
First, the Rookie of the Year rankings were posted on Wednesday. As expected, the number-one overall pick was voted #1 — Philadelphia’s Ben Simmons. He received 35 first-place votes and scored 207 overall points.
Kris Dunn finished second in the voting, notching eight first-place votes and 89 points, edging out the Lakers’ Brandon Ingram (three first-place votes and 71 total points).
