Best Newcomer – Rodney Stuckey
I considered C.J. Miles in this spot, but felt Stuckey should get the nod. Both players have dealt with injuries throughout the season, but Stuckey has been more consistent when he plays.
Each player is averaging 11-12 points, and about 2 rebounds a game. Stuckey also chips in 3 assists and shoots 44% compared to Miles 37% from the field.
Throw in the fact that Miles makes about $3mil more than Stuckey, and Rodney is the guy.
