Philadelphia 76ers point guard Michael Carter-Williams will be named the NBA Rookie of the Year, NJ.com reported on Saturday.
The award is expected to be announced next week.
Carter-Williams averaged 16.7 points, 6.3 assists, and 6.2 rebounds after being selected the No. 11 overall pick in last year’s draft out of Syracuse.
Carter-Williams was the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month four times this season but the 76ers struggled mightily to a 19-63 record.
