There is no reason to pull the panic alarm about a rookie after one month in the NBA. So, I am not going to do that about Suns center Khaman Maluach, who has barely cracked the rotation as Mark Williams and Nick Richards eat up the minutes at the five spot.
However, it's also hard not to look at the draft order from June and notice that Cedric Coward, who was picked directly after Maluach, is blossoming into a star already with the Memphis Grizzlies, and recently, Derik Queen of the Pelicans (pick No. 13) has come on extremely strong, too.
