Podruhé v řadě se nováčkem roku NBA stal hráč San Antonia. Castle porazil spoluhráče Krejčího
„Od první chvíle jsem si jako hráč věřil a tohle byl jednoznačně můj cíl. Mám radost, že se mi to podařilo,“ řekl Castle, který byl s 1190 body nejlepším střelcem mezi nováčky. Cenu získal pro San Antonio podruhé za sebou. Loni v anketě triumfoval jeho spoluhráč pivot Victor Wembanyama.Naposledy získala ocenění pro nováčka roku dvakrát po sobě v letech 2015 a 2016 Minnesota díky triumfům Andrewa Wigginse (nyní působí v Miami) a Karla-Anthonyho Townse (nyní hraje za New York Knicks).
