6. Rookie showdown in Minnesota
I love Jordan Clarkson, but there is no question that Andrew Wiggins was the Rookie of the Year. However, on March 25th, Wiggins may have not been the best rookie on the court. As the Lakers came out with the two point victory in a meaningless game, Clarkson put on a show against the rookie phenom Wiggins. Clarkson put up a stat line of 20 points 5 assists, 5 rebounds, and two steals. Sure, Wiggins poured in 27 points of his own, but there can be an argument made that Clarkson won this rookie matchup.
