Speedy Claxton Rookie? WTF Just how in the world did Speedy claxton become a rookie twice? I know he was injured last year but that should not matter. How does he get classified as a rookie?????? I was watching TNT and they said "Rookie" Speedy claxton"
Claxton has missed the last eight games after spraining his left ankle in the opening seconds of the second quarter at Memphis on Dec. 8. At the time of his injury, he was among the NBA Rookie leaders in scoring (8.7 ppg, 9th), assists (3.4 apg, 3rd), steals (1.26 spg, 4th), free throw percentage (.810, 1st) and minutes (28.5, 6th How is this possible???????????????? when this is what is history 2000 Player Round / Pick School Craig "Speedy" Claxton (Round 1, Pick 20) Hofstra
but just that is what matters. he didn't played last season and this season is his rookie season. just like Kirilenko. he was in same draft, but last year he played in home and this season is his rookie season.
at least it's not like baseball where you can win ROY even after playing a few games in the majors the previous season.
