Rookie of the Year

Rookie of the Year is an award given to the most outstanding first-year player in a sports league, such as the NBA or MLB. It recognizes a newcomer who demonstrates exceptional talent, skill, and impact during their debut season. The award highlights promising talent and often signals a player’s potential for a successful career ahead. Selection is typically based on votes from sports writers, broadcasters, and sometimes coaches, considering overall performance, contribution to the team, and individual growth throughout the season.
