After winning the Western Conference Rookie of the Month award in November, Luka Doncic won also the same award for December.
The Slovenian rookie joins Jay Vincent (1981-’82 season) as the only Mavs rookie to capture this honor on multiple occasions. But the third pick in last June’s NBA Draft is the only Mavs rookie to accomplish this feat during the first two months of the season.
In 15 games in December, Doncic scored 20 or more points 10 times, including 32 or more points on two occasions. He also averaged 21.1 points, 6.4 rebounds and 6.1 assists and picked up four double-doubles in December.
