76er's Rookie Robbed of Rookie of the Year Award Last Night

Dario Saric, a Croatian 2014 lottery draft pick, who came over to the 76ers this past season. Dario had a remarkable second half of the season. When Joel Embiid went down with another injury, everyone thought the 76ers would just lie down and quit for the rest of the season. But, Dario Saric showed he wasn't going to quit. After All-Star break, Dario Saric averaged 19.5 points per game, 7.9 rebounds per game, and 4.2 assists per game.

There is no way he shouldn't have won the Rookie of the Year award by a landslide.

For the 2016-17 season, Dario Saric averaged 12.8 points per game, 6.3 rebounds per game, and 2.2 assists a game in just 26.3 minutes a game.

Not to knock Malcolm Brogdon, but he only averaged 10.2 points per game, 4.2 assists per game, and 2.8 rebounds per game in 26.4 minutes per game.

Brogdon's numbers was only better than Dario's in the assists category. So, I'm kind of perplexed how he won Rookie of the Year award.
