As fate would have it. This is only the beginning.

“He is also the first rookie since Manute Bol (85-86) to lead the NBA in blocks and the first rookie to record 250 blocks in a season since Alonzo Mourning & Shaq (92-93).”

Well deserved, should probably couple it with DPOY but doubt they allow a rookie to win it.

A bit surprised Chet didn't get a couple votes his way.

Honestly should have won DPOTY as well, but I think Wemby spoiled it on ESPN saying Gobert has won DPOTY.

I was believer in him before he blew up. People were saying he was going to be a bust, I told them he was going to be something never seen before in the history of the NBA. He made me look like a genius.
That being said, I'm surprised Chet didn't get any votes. I mean Wemby is the obvious winner, but Chet is a worthy competitor himself.
Edit: He was being compared to Bol Bol.

So begins Victor's ascent. Next year, I'm expecting first-time all-star and 2nd team All-NBA.

Great stuff, well deserved. However unanimous stuff is weird, usually there's one homer who just picks something weird which is what prevents a lot of players from getting much deserved unanimous awards.

Congrats to Brandon Miller for being the 2nd best rookie and Chet as best eligible 2nd year player!
