Unveiling the NBA Rookies Shocking Everyone with Their Unexpected Dominance This Season
Dishonorable Mentions
With this kind of category, you have to point out the players who have been the biggest underperformers because, well, everyone is wondering!
Before we do that, though, it’s worth pointing out Dallas Mavericks forward Cooper Flagg (one of the most-hyped No. 1 overall draft picks in recent memory) is actually considered an underachiever in this exercise. Despite being the leading rookie scorer (20.4 points per game) and playing with an all-around style, his DRIP (0.62) is 0.24 points below the average top pick, as our metric views him as only a slight positive on both sides of the ball at this point in time.
