For the final time, Jalen Williams won the Rookie of the Month award.
The NBA announced the Oklahoma City Thunder wing won the award for the combined months of March and April. Willams scored 20-plus points in nine of his final 18 games during that span.
In March/April, Williams averaged 18.7 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.3 assists.
This is the second time Williams won the award. He also won it for October/November at the beginning of the season.
The Eastern Conference winner was Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero, which is fitting: They will likely finish as the top two in Rookie of the Year voting.
