Vince Carter wins 1999 Rookie of the Year Honors
Vince Carter, who nearly took the Toronto Raptors into the playoffs this season, was the overwhelming choice for the NBA's rookie of the year on Wednesday.
Carter, who averaged 18.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.0 assists a game, received 113 of the 118 first-place votes. Sacramento's Jason Williams received three and Boston's Paul Pierce got the other two.
Only Shaquille O'Neal and Tim Duncan received a higher percentage of the vote this decade.
"I can't say I'm surprised," Carter said. "But I'm overjoyed."
Carter, the fifth selection in last year's draft, led all rookies in scoring and also was a key factor in the Raptors' improvement.
Toronto went from a 16-66 record in 1997-98 to a 23-27 mark in the abbreviated season this year.
