IMO Wendell Carter will take the award. He is plugging in to an established young group with a stretch four that will give him a lot of space to work.
Ayton has a lot going on around him in terms of establishing a dynamic with Booker and incorporating all their new guys.
Bagley doesn’t have enough spacing around him in Sacramento to make a significant impact.
Doncic will progressively get better but will struggle with his shot at times. This first year he’ll be a much better passer than scorer.
Knox is too raw. Sexton is the only perimeter player you have to defend in Cleveland. Trae Young is going to get cooked on defense.
