Damian Lillard is the winner of the 2012-13 Kia NBA Rookie of the Year. Which shouldn’t be a surprise if you ever watched him play.
Like Blake Griffin who won the award back in 2010-2011, Lillard was also a unanimous selection by a panel of North American sportswriters and broadcasters.
Anthony Davis and Bradley Beal finished second and third in voting respectively. Lillard finished the season with averages of 19.0 points and 6.5 assists per game.

adidas recently launched their cool new “Quick Ain’t Fair,” campaign and commercial for the Crazyquick basketball shoe. Narrated by rapper A$AP Rocky and featuring his song “Goldie,” the spot tells the tale of a mythical family of quicks comprised of John Wall (Washington Wizards), Damian Lillard (Portland Trail Blazers) and Jrue Holiday (Philadelphia 76ers) that balled wearing an advanced shoe which helped them dominate their opponents.

The Blazers’ Damian Lillard became the first rookie to win the Taco Bells Skills Challenge, defeating Jrue Holiday by 5.8 seconds in the final and earning 10 points for the Western Conference in the State Farm All-Star Saturday Night competition.
“I think the biggest thing for me was to try not to be too cool and speed through it,” Lillard said, “but take my time with the passes and shots.”
Lillard’s time of 28.8 seconds in the first round was the best of the night.

The lead Damian Lillard has in the Rookie of the Year race just got wider. With Anthony Davis in town and the game on the line. Lillard calmly nailed a step back jumper to win the game from behind the arc to sink the Hornets. This kid continues to impress the hell out of me.
