Blake Griffin - F - Los Angeles Clippers

Blake Griffin has won the NBA Rookie of the Year award according to multiple reports announced on Tuesday, with the official announcement coming Wednesday afternoon.

We could be looking at a near unanimous vote, as only John Wall was in the same ballpark as Griffin for this award. He'll need to work on his defense and foul shooting, but when he starts making progress in that area he has the capability to be a first-round fantasy pick in standard 8-cat or 9-cat leagues.
