For this free choice blog I’m writing about a rookie in the NBA who has the potential to be a superstar. His name is Michael Carter Williams. Aside from his consistency as of late he had one of the best debuts in NBA history. Carter Williams played his first game against the heat and managed to lead his unfortunately terrible team to victory against the defending champs almost scoring a quadruple double (4 stats in double figures, points, assists, steals etc.) something that has never been done before in the NBA. He also managed to lead his team to another victory against the Chicago Bulls. He managed to score 26 points and dish out 10 assists, which are superstar quality numbers. He’s already been chosen as the favorite to win rookie of the year, and quite frankly there aren’t many who could “dethrone” him as the favorite to win. Fortunately for Carter Williams this draft was expected to be a bust, so he most likely won’t have much competition to win the award. However Carter Williams wasn’t expected to be as good as he is, going 11th in the draft to the Philadelphia 76ers everybody thought he would be just another average starter, But his debut proved to everybody that he’s deserving of some attention. His consistency so far however is what’s kept him in the spotlight. It seems as if he enjoys playing great teams because he always plays extremely well against them. Personally I’m happy this article was written because this way more people will know about a player with great potential to be amazing. I think the author wrote this article to publicize Carter Williams more because rookies don’t normally get recognized too often even rookies that are playing like other superstars.
