The NBA is a world of the strong, but most of the strong need to grow, experience, fail, and take time to sharpen before they can eventually become superstars. This is true of Curry, Durant, Jokic, Brother Alphabet, James and other face-to-face figures in today's league. However, looking at the history of the NBA, there are also a few stars who dare to say "I am a supergiant in my rookie year, and I can make it for a while", which is as strong as James and Jordan.
Duncan. The closest player to us, who was selected for the first team in his rookie season, was Duncan. Duncan had already played dominant in college, and scouts at the time said that Duncan was already a perfect player with little flaws. In 97, he entered the NBA as a champion show, integrating offense and defense, and his basic skills are perfect. He was the leader of the team in his rookie season, leading the Spurs from 20-62 to 56-26 and becoming a championship contender. In the end, he was selected for the best team + best second defense, and his performance was impeccable.
Bird. Big Bird Bird, like Duncan, is a well-established player. As a small forward, his athleticism isn't top-notch, but his skills, ball quotient, and shooting ability are impeccable. He also entered the NBA after college, starting his career with the Celtics. He averaged 21 per game in his rookie season3 points 104 rebounds and 4With 5 assists and a 48% shooting percentage, he led the Green Army to a 61-21 record in his rookie year, ranking first in the league, and he was selected for a period without any suspense.
Chamberlain. When it comes to the monsters of the NBA, the handsome Chamberlain must be on the list. His appearance completely changed the NBA landscape at that time. Chamberlain had a strong athleticism and a talent for crushing others. He played in 72 games for the Warriors in his rookie year, averaging 46 minutes per game and 376 points, 27 rebounds, 2With a terrifying statistic of 3 assists, he was not only selected for the best team, but also won the scoring title, and was also elected MVP.
Robertson. Another legend of the ancient era, Robertson and Chamberlain were players of an era and the best point guards of their time. Robertson is known for his all-round appearance, a big point guard who can score, play, and defend. He was a 60-year draft pick and played for the Cincinnati Royals. At that time he cut an average of 30 per game5 points 101 rebound 9The quasi-triple-double data of 7 assists, with such a performance, was also successfully selected for the best team.
Baylor. One of the NBA's tragic heroes, the reason why he is sad is because he has extremely strong personal ability, but he failed to win an overlook ring. Baylor is a famous legend of the Lakers, but he failed to reach the top of the Finals in his career 8 times, which is very regrettable. As a rookie, he averaged 24 per game9 points, 15 rebounds, 4With 1 assist, he is already the best small forward in the league, and he deserves to be selected for the first team.
Petit. When it comes to Bob Pettit, not many fans know him, he is a famous legend of the Hawks, and the only championship in team history is won by Petit. He was a super center in ancient times, and in his rookie season, Petit averaged 20 per game4 points 138 rebounds 3With 2 assists, there weren't many top centers in the league at the time, and Petit was successfully selected for the first team. At his peak after that, Petit defeated Russell's Celtics and successfully won the championship.
