## Resource

Rookie of the Year race turns wild as Kon Knueppel’s dominance gets derailed by one voter’s shocking third-place ballot — Tony Jones, Philly’s own Sixers beat writer. While VJ Edgecombe had a solid season with solid stats and historic debut moments, Knueppel obliterated the field with 18.5 PPG, elite shooting, rookie-record threes, and four Rookie of the Month awards. One outlier vote? It feels less like a ballot and more like hometown bias — and it’s got everyone wondering what’s really driving the rankings.
