The 2023-24 rookie class will be headlined by a pair of seven-footers who are hoping to become faces of their respective franchise.
Chet Holmgren and Victor Wembanyama will likely battle it out for the Rookie of the Year award. While they’ll both be rookies, they weren’t drafted in the same year. Holmgren was the 2022 No. 2 pick by the Oklahoma City Thunder but missed the entire 2022-23 season due to a Lisfranc injury while Wembanyama was the 2023 No. 1 pick for the San Antonio Spurs.
