I must have just missed it. I don't recall hearing any radio personalities discuss it or any threads on here talking about him. Given his numbers, it seems like very little hype.



It was known he was going to be ROY from about the halfway point of the season. ESPN Radio didn't talk much about him because his team isn't a contender and he's not either a Superstar or Tebow.

But his highlights were shown after almost every game on SportsCenter. I saw them a lot for sure.

Personally, I think his stats are skewed, but he is a very good player.

Which usually would create and increase the hype.

Seems similar to Steph Curry's rookie year, except Curry got more attention and didn't win ROY.

Probably. I was just trying to bring the kid some attention because it felt like me he didn't get much.
