On May 22, the NBA officially announced the All-Rookie Team: the first team was led by Castle (Spurs, No. 4 pick), and the remaining four were Eddie (Grizzlies, No. 9 pick), Rissache (Hawks, No. 1 pick), Saar (Wizards, No. 2 pick), and Wells (Grizzlies, No. 39 pick). The second team of the best rookie are: Boozeris (Bulls, No. 11), Carrington (Wizs, No. 14), Klingen (Trail Blazers, No. 7), Missy (Pelicans, No. 21), and Vail (Heat, No. 15).

Many people spoke out for Lakers rookie Kneckett and played very well in the early stage, but the Lakers did not regard him as the core. After the trading farce, they never had a chance to play again. At the beginning of the season, Knector also targeted the best rookie, but he lost his team position and was not selected for the second team. At the same time, many people also found that the Rockets' Sanhua Shepard was not in the best team, and believed that Shepard might become a high-ranking parallel.

Before entering the NBA, Shepard was highly expected because his shooting ability Many scouts reported that three-pointers were Curry-level existence. In addition, Shepard is indeed very explosive in the summer league, but in the NBA regular season, his performance is not very stable except for not having a fixed playing time. So, it made the Rockets and himself very embarrassed. Shepard was the only one in the top four picks, but was not selected for the All-Rookie Team.

If Shepard is a parallel, the embarrassing thing is that the Rockets waste a terrible sign. If Shepard is not a parallel, then the Rockets will not train players. For both sides, the best situation is to trade Shepard out to see if it can be played in other teams, which is good for both sides.
