Jamie Morrison
Cavaliers Point Guard Jamie Morrison was the only one of our rookies to perform on opening night. He was named as a starter and performed a stellar job for the Cavs, with 7 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists.
Ivan Shchipanski
The next night, Ivan Shchipanski had his debut for the Denver Nuggets. The young rookie had just two minutes to prove himself, and managed to grab an offensive rebound in the process.
Jon Smith
The next debut for one of our rookies was a month later, on December 9 when Jon Smith, who had been on the bench for every game along with Kyle Deardorn, was finally given the call and placed into the game. He had just two minutes to play, and failed to do anything except miss a shot, but it was a defining point in his career.
Kyle Deardorn
One week later, fellow Celtics rookie Kyle Deardorn was given the opportunity to prove himself, with a 6 minute stint, in which he scored 6 points on 3-4 shooting, and made 3 assists. It was a very promising debut, in which Jon Smith also played.
Unfortunately, Martti Must has suited up for every game for the Sixers, but is still yet to play after two months of the season. Worse still, Liam Washburn has yet to make it out of the Anaheim Arsenal, Portland's D-League team. However, he has managed to score 16 points and 8 rebounds per game, so a call-up cannot be far away. Surely?
Jamie Morrison
When the Cavaliers played the Philadelphia 76ers on November 25, Jamie Morrison had an outstanding game. The 5'11, 185lb Guard from Akron managed 28 points and 8 assists, as he played a huge 41 minutes.
Ivan Shchipanski
Eleven days earlier, Ivan Shchipanksi was given just 5 minutes against the Miami Heat, but managed to score 9 points, dish 1 assist and make a steal. Whilst it is not on the same scale as Morrison's, it manages to spur the Nuggets on to victory.
Jon Smith
On December 29, Jon Smith was on the court for 7 minutes against the Golden State Warriors, and managed to score 5 points, grab 2 rebounds and block 1 shot. It should no doubt be an interesting next few months, as Smith sttempts to get more playing time.
