French phenomenon Victor Wembanyama was named rookie of the month for March in the Western Conference for the third time in a row, the North American Basketball League (NBA) announced Tuesday on social networks.

During this period, the French giant (2.24m) evolved on bases rarely seen for a player in his first season by compiling 23.2 points, 11.7, rebounds and 3.8 blocks average.

The young interior, aged 20, even became the first "rookie" to accumulate 40 points and 20 rebounds in a game since Shaquille O'Neal in 1993. Against the New York Knicks, "Wemby" also finished the game with 7 assists and 1 block. In the East, Charlotte Hornets winger Brandon Miller was honored, also for the third consecutive month.

Favorite for "Rookie of the Year"

Brilliant in his consistency, Wembanyama advances on the royal road to win the title of rookie of the year, his rival from Oklahoma City Chet Holmgren seeming to mark time, after having was distinguished in the West in November and December.
